| Poor mental health has a domino effect on every other facet of a person's life. It's the foundation for living a healthy successful life. We live in a food dessert with more fast food restaurants than fresh healthy produce. In many ways our community encourages unhealthy eating as fast food is more affordable and easy to get. There needs more of an awareness campaign around sources for affordable and healthy foods like Alumna farm which is close and accepts EBT. So many of my neighbors are over weight. Obesity is a hard condition to hide. / As for teen pregnancy, this is a national problem as we do not offer comprehensive sex education in schools. I see so many young children and babies in our neighborhood. I want to make sure young girls and boys have access to evidence based research and birth control so as to prevent unplanned pregnancy. | NPU 2 |
