It’s finally uploaded! Here is the 10 minute documentary video of our experience doing the Healthy Retailer Project over Summer 2013! Please watch, share, and let us know what you think!
The Healthy Retailer Project is part of an effort to assess the availability and marketing of alcohol, tobacco, and food products in at least 10,000 stores across the state. Participants are trained to use an app on their smartphone device to administer the survey, which takes approximately 15-20 minutes to complete. Youth volunteers from Teens Making A Change youth council, Terra Nova high school, and San Francisco State University helped conduct 174 surveys in Daly City, Pacifica, South San Francisco, and even SFO International Airport!
