“Partnering for a Healthy California”

Network for a Healthy California Mission:

The Mission of the Network for a Healthy California (Network) is to create innovative partnerships that empower low-income Californians to increase fruit and vegetable consumption, physical activity and food security with the goal of preventing obesity and other diet–related chronic diseases.

Partnering can take many forms, including partnership across disciplines, partnering with the community, partnering with other agencies and, of course, traditional professional collaboration.   Working in partnership has helped all of us in the Network to develop and implement appropriate strategies to overcome the challenges we face.

This dynamic one-day conference is followed by a day of interactive trainings and focused meetings.  Come together for two days of inspiration and ideas as we collectively spotlight forming and using partnerships.

4 Great Reasons to Attend: 

  1. Get tips and tools from other practitioners with first-hand experience in working in partnerships.
  2. Practical takeaways
    With hands-on practical sessions, case studies from successful programs and plenty of time to network with your peers and leaders, in the field, you will go home with real-world best practices, tips and shortcuts that will make an immediate indifference to your initiatives and program.
  3. Come back better networked
    Let’s face it, it’s not always what you know, it’s who you know.  And this works at every level-from being able to ask someone about a difficult issue you’re facing, to knowing who to talk to when you’re looking for data, to sharing a coffee with someone who could give you the next great idea to implement in your organization.  The Network conference is about community and networking.
  4. Come back to the office inspired
    If you’re struggling with the day-to-day grind of your job, the Network conference will give you a chance to recharge, to rediscover your inspiration and to take time to think about the big picture. 

We look forward to seeing you there!
