During this time of social distancing and isolation and in compliance with the CDC guidelines, we will make home deliveries to our families so that they will have the necessary nutritious foods utilizing food as medicine. Our staff and drivers continue to follow the state mandated 6 feet distance so that they maintain a safe distance from our families while they provide this essential service.<\/p>\n Food is Medicine bags were delivered to all our families in the program. Bags were filled with fresh fruits and vegetables as well as lean sources of proteins and whole grains. If any of our breastfeeding mothers become infected with Covid, we have secured formula as a supplement for their babies during the time they are ill.\u00a0<\/p>\n You can find more information on our programs on Facebook and Instagram. On behalf of Dr. Alice Freeman, the entire staff of Healthy Hearts Plus II and the families we serve, we say, \u201cThank You\u201d for your unselfish love and act of kindness. We pray blessings of good health, peace of mind and total wellness for each of you. Please continue to be safe and well.\u00a0<\/p>\n Session Needs: None currently.<\/i><\/p>\n Conclusion:\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<\/strong>Care packages consisting of food items and other essentials were distributed to each participant.<\/p>\n
