Our Mission
To prevent, reduce, or eliminate chronic diseases, health disparities
and hunger through nutrition and health education, community outreach and screening services. Our goals are to:
- Encourage people to move toward healthy lifestyles
- Improve self-management skills of chronic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, heart disease, and cancer
- Provide services aimed at dispelling hunger and its root cause—unemployment
- Seek food, funds, and resources to aid emergency food providers
- To reach the community with the life giving message of good nutrition and various forms of nutritional
services that will improve the health and well-being of our community
- To help families that suffer from lack of food and joblessness to not only acquire good food,
but to also gain access to jobs and a future of economic independence through various forms of
educational, self-help and biblical teachings
