CANFIT

By providing professional development opportunities and translating theory and cutting edge research, we help to bridge the gap between scientific research and on the ground best practices. CANFIT believes that youth and community involvement in the planning, implementation and evaluation of projects is essential. Actively involving members of the community ensures greater success by producing results that are relevant and interesting to their peers.
CANFIT primarily focuses on low income, African-American, American Indian, Latino/Hispanic, Asian American and Pacific Islander communities. Many of these historically underserved populations have limited access to affordable, healthy foods and safe places for physical activity. Check out CANFIT’s Latest Capability Statement.
