Charles City County announced the joining of the county to the Healthy Eating and Active Living (HEAL) cities and town campaigns for the Mid-Atlantic.

A November resolution passed by county supervisors allows HEAL to join with Charles City County Health Coalition to carry out the implementation of the adopted resolution. The resolution focuses on improving access to healthy foods and physical activity in both small and large communities throughout Maryland and Virginia.

The partnership will allow the Institute for Public Health to provide free training, support, and technical policy to municipal leaders. For more information, contact Melissa Canaday, Charles City County Health Coalition chairwoman at 548-6412 or by email at turtlecrest@aol.com.
