X-Prize Community Health Landscape

Revival Strategy 8 BRIEF: Scaling Wellness Through Rapid Community Health Improvement X-Prizes

What if we used the power of competition to
reverse chronic disease—community by community?

Incentive-driven innovation once launched reusable rockets. Now, it could launch a health revival. This strategy proposes a bold new use of the X-Prize model: spark rapid, measurable health transformation through funded, AI-powered competitions across America.

Revival Strategy Core Goal

To ignite a nationwide movement where communities compete to produce measurable health outcomes—not by treating disease, but by preventing and reversing it.

Key Tactics

  • Launch a $25M Health X-Prize Competition with prizes for local, regional, and national transformation models
  • Mobilize Diverse Coalitions including public health, AI, education, clinicians, and wellness leaders
  • Reward Measurable Outcomes like obesity reversal, stress reduction, reduced diagnoses, and improved sleep, mood, and school performance
  • Support Winning Models with grants, tools, and scaling resources
  • Track & Celebrate Results to drive national replication

Replication and Scale using Success Models

  • Blue Zones Project – Fort Worth, TX
  • Alive Faith Network – Chicago, IL
  • Whole Health Institute – Bentonville, AR
  • AI for Health programs by Microsoft, Stanford, WHO
  • Behavior Change for Good Initiative, Stanford Behavior Design Lab

Success won’t come from mandates—it will come from momentum.

This X-Prize flips the paradigm from managing disease to scaling health. When stakeholders are invited to create bold solutions—and supported with real funding, trusted local leadership, and AI-enhanced insight—transformation happens. With success stories, families across America can see what works and replicate it—fast.

This is more than a contest. It’s a call to heal—community by community, coach by coach, meal by meal, ensuring that the US population is the 4th healthiest in the world by 2035.
