The Central Cost Regional Program guides the Nutrition and Fitness Collaborative of the Central Coast (NFCCC), a collaborative of 50+ agencies spanning Monterey, Santa Cruz, and San Benito counties, representing schools, agencies, and organizations working to improve the health and well being of Central Coast residents.
The NFCCC sponsors professional trainings, conferences and community forums, and releases an annual mini-grant RFA every spring, providing grants of $500-$3,000 for work that meets the mission and vision of the NFCCC and the Network for a Healthy California.
Goal I: The Regional Network lead agency will maximize information, networking, coordination, training, resources, and potential impact of Network-funded projects in the regional area.
Goal II: Bring Regional Collaborative members together to plan and implement initiatives that make it easier for low-income populations to adopt healthy eating and physical activity lifestyles in their communities.
