Elevate+ for UC.
Evidence, reinforced daily.
For years, CalFresh Healthy Living, UC has helped Californians translate nutrition science into practical skills — planning meals, shopping intelligently, staying active, and stretching limited food dollars. Elevate+ puts that education to work in daily life — for every Californian you serve.
"A lesson lasts an hour. Eating happens every day. Elevate+ lives in that gap — turning what your educators teach into what participants actually do."
— Elevate+ for the Californians UC serves
Your mission.
Made daily.
These aren't our words — they're yours. Every commitment your program made, Elevate+ helps keep.
"Inspire and empower underserved Californians through education, awareness, partnerships, and community change."
Empowerment that persists after the lesson ends: an adaptive companion that reinforces your curriculum in the context of each participant's real meals — plus Coach Mode, so your educators can pair with participants, propose adjustments, and leave notes the AI follows. And in-app Communities keep a class cohort connected after the course ends.
"Teach good nutrition and how to stretch food dollars."
Weekly meal plans built strictly from each household's own foods and cuisines, with cooking-effort settings and repeatable meals that simplify shopping — Plan, Shop, Save and Cook, extended to every night of the week. Explicit cost-aware recommendations are next on our roadmap, co-designed with UC.
"Deliver evidence-based education with measurable behavior change."
Continuous reinforcement participants feel, and results your program can see: every meal, target, and change kept in an auditable history — measurable behavior change between your pre/post instruments, ready for your evaluations.
"Promote physical activity alongside healthy eating."
Apple Health integration brings real steps, workouts, and sleep into the coaching conversation — so guidance reflects what participants actually did, and weekly insights catch activity-nutrition mismatches early.
Education that follows
the participant home.
Imagine a participant completing a lesson — and having an adaptive companion for the days and weeks that follow, grounded in the foods they actually eat.
Balanced Meals
A lesson about balanced meals becomes a real-time recommendation for tonight's dinner.
Healthier Substitutions
A lesson about substitutions becomes an alternative to the exact dish the participant is preparing.
Dietary Balance
A lesson about dietary balance becomes personalized feedback based on what they've already eaten today.
What this looks like in practice.
Your science.
Our technology.
From Plan, Shop, Save and Cook to Eat Smart, Live Strong to EatFresh — UC's programs already measure behavior change with rigorous pre/post instruments like the Food Behavior Checklist.
Elevate+ doesn't replace that framework. It extends it: reinforcing the exact concepts your curriculum teaches, in the context of each participant's actual meals, preferences, and goals — and generating the engagement data your evaluations need. The same daily skills that prevent obesity and type 2 diabetes: practiced, not just taught.
Data between
the pre and post.
Pre/post surveys capture two points in time. Elevate+ captures what happens in between: daily engagement, dietary patterns, retention, and behavior — continuously, unobtrusively, and aggregable by cohort.
So your program doesn't just know whether behavior changed — it can see how, when, and for whom. Evidence your evaluations can use, from day one.
Your participants.
Supported from day one.
Bringing Elevate+ to the Californians UC serves is simple:
- ✓ Participants get Elevate+ at no cost to begin — no accounts, no barriers

Elevate+ provides the personalization and engagement technology. UC provides the scientific and educational framework.
"Your educators teach Californians what healthy looks like. Elevate+ helps them live it — every single day after class."

Education that doesn't end
when the lesson ends.
A new model where evidence-based education follows the participant into everyday life — where decisions about breakfast, groceries, and dinner are actually made.
