MIPLAN (Maternal Infant Physical Leisure Activity Nutrition) is a VRHA project funded by the CDC. In collaboration with the Dan River Health Collaborative, the City of Danville, the Boys and Girls Club of the Danville Area, the Virginia Cooperative Extension, the Danville Family YMCA, and the Birth in Color RVA Foundation, MIPLAN will engage in activities to improve health, prevent chronic disease, and promote wellness in the region. The activities will include a combination of increasing access to affordable healthy food, increasing access to physical activity, and providing education and support for pregnant women to encourage breastfeeding on the individual and community level.
