What We Do
The UNC Center for Health Promotion and Disease Prevention’s Food, Fitness and Opportunity Research Collaborative aims to build economic security, improve health outcomes and contribute to community-based research literature to address those affected by inequity in North Carolina. We achieve these goals by collaborating with representatives from all affected groups and focusing on our key strategies.
The FFORC and CHI teams are situated within the UNC Center for Health Promotion and Disease Prevention (HPDP), which is dedicated to reducing health disparities through community-based research and initiatives and is part of a network of CDC Prevention Research Centers. Both teams are funded by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) SNAP-Ed Program through a partnership with the NC Division of Child and Family Well-being.
