Improving community health through health impact assessments

LETTER FROM THE EDITOR

i 

In the second issue of  the Chronicles of  Health Impact Assessment we have four articles on HIA projects and 
research and one book review. The Society of  Practitioners of  Health Impact Assessment continue to be active 
partners with the CHIA board in providing ongoing sharing of  information to continue to move forward the work 
in the field. The CHIA editorial board would also welcome articles about tools to better measure impact and broad-
er research and interventions on promoting health in all policies. 

We continue to need more volunteers to be peer reviewers. Being a peer reviewer is a time sensitive process as we 
have a goal to have the comments and suggestions back to the authors within a month of  consenting to be a re-
viewer. As a peer reviewer, you are providing valuable feedback on how to make the article more useful and easier to 
comprehend. We have included the application to be a peer reviewer at the end of  this issue.

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