Yes2Health free 12-week programs to start in January
The Delaware Breast Cancer Coalition’s Yes2Health program is gearing up for new sessions to begin in January 2022.
Yes2Health is a free community health outreach program designed to help educate and encourage participants on how to live healthier lifestyles. Yes2Health’s 12-week program features weekly virtual or in-person meet-ups to help keep participants engaged.
These education programs include lessons and discussions about nutrition, fitness, health and wellness to help participants understand and maintain an active and healthy lifestyle.
As people think about new year’s resolutions and cutting back after holiday spending and eating, it’s the perfect time to sign up for this free program. Participants can kick-start the new year by making healthy lifestyle changes and learning about new eating patterns that can help them achieve their goals.
“To best accommodate busy schedules and the virtual direction the world has taken, Yes2Health is offering both in-person and virtual options with varied schedules to best accommodate our participants’ needs,” said Amanda Perdue, Yes2Health program manager.
The program’s updated lessons are designed to be inclusive of all lifestyles, eating patterns and cuisines. Starting the first week of January, participants can choose from four virtual group options.
“You’re invited to join Yes2Health and we can tackle your new year’s resolutions together,” said Perdue.
This program is brought to local communities at no cost by the Delaware Breast Cancer Coalition with generous support from the Kent Mobile Library, Chase, the Mid-Del Foundation, Milford Lions Club, Pfizer, Proctor & Gamble, and the Sussex County Health Coalition.
Signing up with a friend or family member can strengthen participants’ success. Statistics show that people are more likely to keep healthy habits when they join a new program with someone they know. Plus, it is that much more fun.
