California Project LEAN (Leaders Encouraging Activity and Nutrition) (CPL) is a joint program of the California Department of Public Health and the Public Health Institute focusing on youth empowerment, policy and environmental change strategies, and community-based solutions. CPL’s mission is to increase healthy eating and physical activity to reduce the prevalence of obesity and chronic diseases such as heart disease, cancer, stroke, osteoporosis, and diabetes.

The website contains information, resources, and successful strategies for promoting healthy eating and physical activity in schools and communities. The website also provides a resource library, a food standards calculator, and policy/advocacy information to advance health and nutrition.
