Educating our Elected Officials on the Importance of Physical Activity and the Fitness Industry

In 2022 the CFA Team met with California state legislators to advocate and educate on the essential role of physical activity and the fitness industry. As a result several Assemblymembers have agreed to author/sponsor legislation that will increase access to physical activity and fitness centers for many Californians.

In 2022, the CFA joined the Advisory Board of the Physical Activity Alliance (PAA).
