Lombard and the School also worked with Dr. Szapocznik to create criteria for measuring walkability for Florida's State Surgeon General.
The idea is that communities could be measured by the criteria and take pride in being walkable enough to earn a "Seal of Walkability."
Lombard has teamed with School of Architecture faculty to publish professional papers on healthy living such as:
• The Relationship of Built Environment to Perceived Social Support and Psychological Distress in Hispanic Elders: The Role of "Eyes on the Street" in the Journals of Gerontology.
• Identifying Streetscape Features Significant to Well-Being in The University of Sydney Architectural Science Review.
• The Impact of the Built Environment on Children's School Conduct Grades: The Role of Diversity of Use in a Hispanic Neighborhood in the American Journal of Community Psychology.
• Built Environment and Physical Functioning in Hispanic Elders: The Role of "Eyes on the Street" in Environmental Health Perspectives
