In 2005, as a direct response to the public health crisis of obesity in our youth, HCZ created the Healthy Living Initiative (HLI) to encourage our students and their families to incorporate healthy food choices and physical activity into their daily lives. Healthy Harlem (HH) provides the best practices in physical activity, nutrition education, and community support. This program is designed to instill a culture of healthyliving throughout the Zone. Still, it is more expansive and strategically focused on how we reach youth in our programs, their parents and caregivers, and the community at large.

Please register for our event to learn more about our organization and our open positions and to chat with some of our representatives about new opportunities within Healthy Harlem! Weare in search of talented and tenacious educators who want to work with children and families to develop lifelong healthy and transform the cultureof wellness in Central Harlem.
