Florida Introduces Physical Activity and Nutrition to Youth (aka FLIPANY) has partnered all across Miami-Dade and Broward counties to provide innovative and evidence-based health and wellness programming for the past 12 years. These efforts include teaching kids how to prepare healthy foods, developing physical activity programs that are fun and engaging, and providing after school and summer meals to youth and families. The PHED Up! Lab has had a longstanding partnership with FLIPANY (since 2011) developing and evaluating after-school programming for underserved youth and creating infrastructure for family-engaged school policy change. PHED Up! Lab students work closely with FLIPANY leadership and staff on research and community projects.
