Neighborhood Impact

Crim Nutrition Program

The Crim Fitness Foundation works with children and adults in a variety of settings in the Flint community to teach them the importance of fruits, vegetables, low-fat dairy, whole grains and lean protein.

Technical Assistance

At the Crim Fitness Foundation we cultivate accessible, vibrant communities in Flint and Genesee County that encourage and create equitable opportunities for individuals to lead healthy lifestyles. To do this, we address access to programs, resources and long term interventions by providing nutrition, physical activity and mindfulness programs for youth and adults. Second, we establish neighborhood schools as community resource hubs through the coordination of Flint’s Community Education Initiative. Lastly, we eliminate barriers and establish sustainable solutions through policy, systems and built environment change.

Safe Schools, Safe Neighborhoods

With the goal of improving safety for kids walking and biking to and from school, millions of dollars have been invested in infrastructure improvements like sidewalks, crosswalks, pedestrian signals, and lighting.

Stay Healthy at Home

Making nutritious choices and keeping physically active can be hard while staying at home. The Crim Nutrition Team is here to help with online resources for you and your family. We have put together downloadable nutrition activity packets and created engaging videos featuring the familiar faces of our FoodCorps Service Members and Nutrition Coordinators.
