Wellness For All

Everyone deserves good health, but the cost of healthcare leaves some people in danger of serious illness and premature death. We have found exciting ways to make good health a reality for all. Many options are low cost, and most cost nothing but time and a decision. African Americans no longer need to suffer from lifestyle diseases such as cancer, diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, and stroke. Wellness 4 All is a health equity program supported by the CEO Roundtable on Cancer and the Shaw University Center for Racial & Social Justice.
