YOUR HEALTH COMES FIRST

The current COVID-19 health crisis showed a disproportionate burden on Black communities and other communities of color. While health and nutrition disparities by race have been known for quite some time, it is imperative we as a community do something about it. For the month of October Sesame Flyers will focus on community health. Join us on our social media platforms as we share health challenges, tips, recipes, and resources for you and your family, culminating in a Caribbean Health Walk..
