Thank you to everyone involved at Staten Island Performing Provider System (SI PPS) Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health for organizing this incredible initiative to evaluate the link between access to healthy food options, life-skill training, primary care, public health interventions, physical activity and related health outcomes. We're excited to collaborate on the Fair Start program delivering nutrition solutions to A Chance In Life (ACIL). #FoodisMedicine can be used as a catalyst for change and reaffirms this connection, recognizing that access to high-quality nourishment is essential for well-being. We look forward to sharing the impact of this important initiative with you. Together, we can create a healthier and more equitable future. #foodsecurity #healthyequity #health #wellness #SDOH #nutrition #culturaldiversity #nutritionsolutions #intergenerationalwellness #medicallytailoredmeals #nutritionscience
