HONEY is a new program developed to bring an array of services to our community and make Greene County a place that encourages a healthy lifestyle. This program is being offered to all five Greene County school districts, Blueprints, and Cornerstone Care referred patients residing in Greene County, PA. Call 724-852-1001 x 1442 to learn more about the program!
Healthy Options:
Our environment plays a large part in how we move and what we eat. Cornerstone Care and our partners want to bring the residents of Greene County, PA more ways to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
Nutrition:
Our physical health relies heavily on the choices we make every day. Food fuels our bodies, but sometimes it is difficult to know what the best choices are. We will share simple guidelines that break up food choices into three categories: “Go” foods, “Slow” foods, and “Woah” foods. We will also be hosting cooking classes that focus on ways to easily and affordably incorporate more “Go” foods than “Woah” foods on your plate.
Exercise:
Exercise is another way to keep our physical health strong. HONEY will provide exercise classes to groups specific to interests and help individuals connect with a fitness expert to develop fitness plans.
Youth:
All School districts and Head Start classrooms in Greene County will teach the CATCH curriculum. Catch stands for “Coordinated Approach to Child Health”. CATCH schools are committed to helping kids eat more nutritious food and get more physical activity.
Nutrition Services:
A registered dietician will meet with each Greene County public school regularly to recommend improvements to the school’s cafeteria, menu choices, vending machines and more.
Group and Individual Counseling:
Counseling services through Cornerstone Care will be made available to any HONEY participant.
