‘Healthy and Resilient Communities’ program tackles a lack of healthy food options in Detroit

The new "Healthy and Resilient Communities" program from Authority Health provides fresh, healthy food options in areas of Detroit where access to nutritious meals is limited. The program places coolers stocked with fresh food—such as wraps, salads, and fruits—in convenience stores, gas stations, and dollar stores in seven Detroit zip codes where the need is greatest. Papa Joe's Gourmet Market is providing fresh food for the project. "American Black Journal” host Stephen Henderson talks with Authority Health President & CEO Loretta Bush and Papa Joe's Marketing Director Hannah Harris about the initiative.
