Nearly 30 million people in the United States are living with diagnosed or undiagnosed diabetes, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Each year, 1.5 million Americans are diagnosed with diabetes, the seventh-leading cause of death in the U.S. in 2015.

3 WINS Fitness reaches nearly 1,500 community members a year in San Fernando, San Francisco and Los Angeles. This number is impressive, but with physical inactivity being the fourth-leading cause of death in the United States, there is a sense of urgency to make a larger impact. We can reach more people with your support.

CSUN is dedicated to resisting the prevalence of inactivity and dietary-related diseases like diabetes by empowering communities to take charge of their health and wellness. CSUN's 3 WINS Fitness is Los Angeles’ largest free diabetes prevention and exercise program. It is offered at public parks and aimed at low-income communities where physical activity is low and health outcomes are poor. 3 WINS Fitness (1) empowers participants to improve their quality of life by building healthier minds, bodies and communities; (2) empowers kinesiology students to apply their education, gain professional experience and grow leadership skills; and (3) improves community health by providing education and programming to reduce the physical and economic burden of physical-inactivity-related diseases.

3 WINS Fitness aims to expand this program to the 21 Cal State Universities in the system and across the nation. It will scale the program by sending CSUN students to train other kinesiology students and establish 3 WINS Fitness in their communities. We will make a difference in the health of our country.
