LETTER FROM THE EDITOR

i 

In the fall 2019 CHIA issue, we have a special series of articles submitted and invited by our guest editor, 
Gretchen Armijo. Gretchen has been working at the City of Denver as the Built Environment Administrator 
and has conducted several HIA’s as part of her work. Gretchen has provided some very interesting articles that 
she will introduce in her own letter.  I very much appreciate all her contributions to making this a meaningful 
journal issue. 

Thank you also to Conner Tiffany, an IU Graduate Service Learning Assistant, for his help with this issue.

If you would like to be a guest editor in the future, please submit your name and the topic you would like to 
write about and recruit at least two additional articles to me at cylstone@iu.edu. I hope you have a great fall. 

Sincerely, 
Cynthia Stone DrPH, RN 
Chronicles of Health Impact Assessment Editor-in-Chief
