 |
Working with African American families on the Mississippi Gulf Coast to strive to live healthier lives by embracing breastfeeding, good nutrition and a tobacco-free lifestyle. The Gulf Coast Healthy Families, Mothers, and Babies Initiative is a five-year cooperative agreement funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as part of the R.E.A.C.H. (Racial and Ethnic Approaches to Community Health) Program to reduce health disparities among populations with a high risk of chronic diseases. The Mississippi Gulf Coast is one of 31 communities selected across the nation. R.E.A.C.H. is a stepping stone for partners across our Gulf Coast to create a network to strengthen and empower families and improve our health outcomes. |
