FFA Business Accreditation

How can my business or organization achieve “FFA-Approved status”, and what are the criteria?
To earn the “FFA-Approved” designation, your business, gym, school, or organization must meet several key criteria demonstrating your commitment to family wellness. As you’ll see, many businesses may already qualify!

Each criterion should be addressed in some way.

Once approved, your entity may display the “FAA-Approved” official designation onsite, digitally, and through most methods of communication (website, letterhead, email, etc.). See below.

The criteria include:

  • Family-friendly programs promoting fitness, nutrition, and mental wellness.

  • Multi-generational participation opportunities.

  • Health habit-building avoiding unproven fitness trends.

  • Positive mental health practices.

  • Promotion of nutritious food options.

  • Avoidance of highly processed, sugary foods.

  • Encouragement of healthy hydration choices.

  • Programs accessible to all ability levels and ages.

  • Supportive, positive environment promoting fun and engagement.

  • Affordable or scholarship options for diverse family participation.
