Since 2010, we have been honored to be able to provide beneficial educational programs and resources that promote healthy lifestyles, and this has helped in building a culture of health equity. We are most excited to share that our efforts “aiming” to eliminate childhood obesity have touched nearly 10,000 families in Metro Detroit. Thank you for allowing us to serve you!
