PWC January Meeting

Happy New Year!

Thank you for supporting the Petersburg Wellness Consortium. We look forward to continuing to work together through the year.

 

We look forward to you joining us on Wednesday, January 15th, 11:00am, in the Petersburg Public Library's Multipurpose Room (201 W. Washington Street). Our first meeting will feature a special "Spotlight" led by Phoenecia Hill of Aetna. She will include Tera James from CVHS (Central Virginia Health Services), as they discuss the “Heart 2 Heart” community blood pressure awareness and intervention they launched with Robin Gahan from the American Heart Association (AHA) in August 2024. It was piloted at Petersburg's Another Level Beauty & Cosmetology. Below is a link to a news feature about the program.

 

Ms. Hill is also one of the region's Fitness Warriors and has responsibilities at VSU. How does she do it all? Join us on January 15th to find out, connect with her, and connect with each other.
