ACHIEVE The mission of the North Miami ACHIEVE project is to integrate opportunities for physical activity and healthy default choices for nutrition and tobacco cessation among residents through policy, system, and environmental change in order to reduce chronic disease.

North Miami CHART Team Who makes up our Team? – State Representative, City of North Miami Mayor & Council, Coaches, Community Planning & Development Department, Miami Dade County Health Department, Department of Transportation, 3 Local Universities, United Healthcare, Members of the Wellness Committee for the Miami Dade County School Board/University of Miami Pediatric School of Medicine, and several community based organization leaders that work with the City. The CHART brings energy to the ACHIEVE initiative along with professional expertise in the various sectors. The elected officials provide support and access to the leaders of the community to enable POLICY changes. The CHART is the KEY to developing your plan to ultimately reduce chronic disease in your city!
