Healthy MA Initiative

As a lover for equal food access and staying healthy, Gerly wants Everett to see more of healthy initiatives. Gerly would love to see healthy food collaboratives for a Farmer’s Market, and an Organic Food Co-op.

​

I will support:

1. Annual Health Challenge with prizes for participants to encourage healthy weight loss, exercise, healthy awareness and an Annual Health Expo.

2. War Against Childhood Obesity:  Partner to provide health education to parents and kids on healthy food preparation at low cost, ways to incorporate activity into family time, and the importance of living a healthy and balanced lifestyle.

3. Everett schools can also take advantage of private funding for the establishment of community gardens and cooking education at schools.
