The Source’s Clark Shelton speaks with Michael and Christa Gonzales, the Wellness Champions for Get Fit Franklin and the Governor’s Foundation for a Healthier Tennessee. Joining them is Jennings Ragan of the Governor’s Foundation.
Recently, Get Fit Franklin was chosen to represent the City of Franklin as a pilot program in the Governor’s Healthier Tennessee initiative.
Healthier Tennessee is led by Gov. Bill Haslam and made possible by The Governor’s Foundation for Health and Wellness, a non-profit corporation dedicated to enabling and encouraging Tennesseans to lead healthier lives.
As part of the collaboration with the Healthier Tennessee Initiative, Christa and Michael Gonzales of the Westhaven community have been selected to serve as the Wellness Champions for the Get Fit Franklin/Healthier Tennessee initiative and as chairs of a newly formed Wellness Council.
Based on their personal experiences, in 2010, the Gonzaleses created ActiveNow.com, a company to help others along in their journey to health and make getting active and healthy easier.
Get Fit Franklin is a program of Franklin Tomorrow, which partners with the City of Franklin, Vanderbilt Health, and BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee, along with numerous other organizations and health and fitness agencies.
