The draft strategic plan for the Healthy Families and Communities Strategic Initiative is posted on the HFC website http://ucanr.org/sites/HFC/ and can be directly accessed at http://ucanr.org/sites/HFC/files/41677.pdf.

Academic staff associated with the HFC initiative should review the draft plan before the HFC Strategic Initiative Conference, which will be held Aug.  24 - 26 at the UC Davis Conference Center.

Three major issues are presented for further review, development, and refinement:
·    Issue 1: Promoting Healthy Behaviors for Childhood Obesity Prevention
·    Issue 2: Youth Science Literacy
·    Issue 3: Promoting Positive Youth Development

Conference participants will discuss and further develop this strategic plan, which will guide activities for the HFC initiative for the next five years.

There is no fee to attend the conference and funds are available to assist with travel, but your account will be charged if you register and don’t show up. Conference program details and registration are at http://ucanr.org/sites/hfcconference/.
