Body & Soul
In 2012, the Coalition received funding from the Community Health Resources Commission to implement ‘Body & Soul: A Celebration of Healthy Living’: a program from the National Cancer Institute that encourages African-American congregations to take better care of their health through healthy eating and living. Program components include health risk assessments, educational workshops, creating a healthy church environment, peer counseling, and incentives such as cookbooks, and pedometers. The Coalition surpassed its’ goal of implementing Body & Soul in at least fifteen churches, ultimately reaching nineteen churches from across the five mid-shore counties.
