Our first cohort is utilizing a variety of approaches with their patient clients – health screenings, nutrition classes, cooking demonstrations, physical fitness options and access to healthy foods – all delivered in a manner uniquely suited to the needs of their communities. The program provides technical assistance webinars and other educational resources, along with financial support up to $50,000 per year for each cohort participant (renewable up thru three years).
