Cal Fresh Healthy Living (CFHL)
CFHL
CalFresh Healthy Living, the University of California Cooperative Extension (UCCE) teaches people eligible for SNAP about good nutrition, how to make their food dollars stretch further, and how to be physically active at any age. Effective, evidenced-based nutrition education and physical activity classes are aligned with policy, systems, and environmental change strategies to create long lasting community change.
Our mission is to inspire and empower under-served Californians to improve their health by promoting awareness, education, and community change through diverse partnerships, resulting in healthy eating and active living.
The majority of CalFresh Healthy Living, UCCE participants are preschool (3-5) and their families. The program also works with SNAP-Ed eligible adults and seniors.
