In this phase, Blue Zones global experts are performing a Readiness Assessment, a structured exploration of El Dorado Hills. They are working with our local community health leaders and organizations to learn and assess the state of our well-being. Becoming a Blue Zones Community is a three-phase process, and the Readiness Assessment is the first step.
