CA Healthier Living Coalition Membership Application

Membership Information

The California Healthier Living Coalition seeks to expand the availability of evidence-based Chronic Disease Self-Management Education (CDSME), falls prevention, and physical activity programs proven to significantly help individuals living with illness(es) or fear(s) that may threaten their independence.

The Coalition, founded in collaboration between the California Department of Aging (CDA) and the California Department of Public Health (CDPH), includes members from state, county and regional agencies; public and private organizations; and individuals committed to making these programs more broadly available. With funding from the Administration for Community Living, Partners in Care Foundation worked with CDA and CDPH to develop the Coalition's infrastructure. Partners serves as the Technical Assistance Center and manager of the Healthier Living Coalition.

Coalition members receive technical assistance and support in implementing CDSME programs and share tools, resources, and strategies as we collectively seek to sustain and expand the reach of these programs. Membership is voluntary. Members include organizations and individuals at various points in implementation, from those in the early planning stages to those who have been offering these programs in their community for many years.
