Description

Talked with Carmelle Chapman, Project Manager, Healthier Lake Worth Beach.  It's a Palm Health Foundation Healthier Together community. The Healthier Together communities focus on different aspects of health based on the local community needs.  Healthier Lake Worth Beach focuses on behavioral health.  They are improving the behavioral health by revitalizing the community. With the help of community volunteers, HLWB has done community clean ups, created neighborhood crime watch, worked with local government/code enforcement to identify folks that need help and submit a referral to connect them with the service.  They also, did a wide outreach about the fate of the unity wall.  The residents, government, artists came to together and chose to keep the unity wall and they revitalized the wall to reflect the history and future of the city.  For more information, to become a volunteer, make a donation or set up a company give back day, listeners can call Carmelle at 561-801-2182 or carmelle.lakeworth@htpbc.org
