Healthy Eating Active Living Network

The Healthy Eating Active Living Network (HEALNet) is a group dedicated to improving the way we live throughout the Coachella Valley.

HEALNet was created in response to a study documenting the childhood obesity epidemic within the Valley. One of the study’s key findings is that obesity is more than just a childhood issue and solutions are complex necessitating a community approach.

HEALNet currently meets on a monthly basis. If you are interested in participating, or would like additional information, please contact .
