In addition they provide evaluation services for other health programs.
The mission of the CNAP, created in June 2006, is to create innovative partnerships that enable Californians in the North State, especially those in high-risk populations, to adopt healthy eating and physical activity patterns as part of a healthy lifestyle.
The 2007 CCPH award winner and the three partnerships recognized as honorable mentions, including CNAP, were announced during the CCPH 10th anniversary conference, "Mobilizing Partnerships for Social Change," April 14 in Toronto.
