Huge shout out to Ms. Emma Fredenburg for leading our Health Disparities students in the garden yesterday. By planting these potatoes, they’re learning firsthand how community gardens bridge the gap to fresh, affordable food.
Shout out to Home Beneath Our Feet for their support in keeping our community grounded and growing.
Dr. Ferdinand has spent over 40 years proving that heart health is a right, not a privilege. As a champion for cardiovascular equity, he reminds us that a great clinician treats the patient and the community.
We love seeing our students at Health Sciences Charter School tackle their anatomy and health equity lessons with such passion. You are the future of heart health!
