Community partnership gives community MOMS a chance for better life
Published 5:21 pm Thursday, April 4, 2013
Tryon Seventh-day Adventist Church has developed a new concept for local moms to improve their overall health and well-being by participating in the Changing Lives MOMS Group program.
The Changing Lives MOMS Group begins with a free, personalized body composition screening and basic health indicators report for participants. The screening results will provide moms with the information they need to begin the process of transforming their lives. The pilot continues with four weekly sessions designed to arm moms with practical tips in the areas of fitness, nutrition and outlook.
While moms learn to improve their health, children ages 12 months and up will engage in age appropriate activities designed around the same learning concepts that mom hears.
The programming is free, and has come together with the help of community partners, including Park Ridge Health, Harmon Field and local businesses.
These gatherings will take place on Wednesdays, April 24 – May 22 from 10:30 a.m. – noon at the cabin at Harmon Field.
