Wellness Wednesday
Wellness Wednesday is a series of webinars aimed at educating residents on health and wellness during the coronavirus pandemic. These webinars will be hosted by the Mayor’s Healthy City Initiative’s Geaux Get Healthy campaign.
The webinar series will have a different topic each session and will feature Geaux Get Healthy’s community partners as guest speakers. Each session will include a garden talk with Mitchell Provensal from Baton Roots Farm, a cooking demonstration with Chef Traci Vincent from the American Heart Association, and a physical fitness component with a wide variety of fitness experts.
The eight-part online series will address issues facing Baton Rouge, such as health disparities, mental health, food deserts, and wellness.
