OUR PROGRAMS 
With a focus on addressing lifestyle-driven chronic illness and systemic inequities, all of our year-round programs begin with the acronym EDD, which stands for Eat Drink Disrupt. EAT represents the power of nourishing our bodies through whole food, plant-based lifestyle practices. DRINK encourages hydration and healthy habits that support overall wellness. DISRUPT reflects our commitment to challenging the systemic inequities that disproportionately impact health outcomes and expanding access to the education, foods and resources communities need to thrive.

is our youth prevention and mentorship program designed to foster lifelong wellness habits through movement, whole food, plant-based lifestyle education and culturally aligned mentorship. Led by former Olympians and former HBCU NCAA Division I athletes with shared lived experience, the program combines tennis instruction, fitness and nutrition education to equip youth ages 5–17 with the knowledge, confidence and support needed to make healthier choices and support optimal wellness across the lifespan.

is our biennial, large-scale signature optimal wellness equity experience designed to connect community members with culturally aligned physicians, chefs and subject matter experts through whole food, plant-based lifestyle education, culinary demonstrations, tastings and community activations. The Summit creates a powerful space for learning, connection and discovering practical solutions that support healthier individuals, families and communities.

Combining physician expertise, whole food, plant-based nutrition education, chef-curated tastings and evidence-based lifestyle resources, the series increases awareness, answers questions and expands access to practical wellness strategies in trusted salon spaces where women already gather and connect.

is our physician-led optimal wellness education series designed to increase awareness and understanding of the role lifestyle plays in the prevention, arrest and reversal of our top lifestyle-driven chronic illnesses. Hosted in trusted community spaces, each experience combines culturally aligned physician expertise, chef-curated whole food, plant-based meals, fresh produce to-go options and evidence-based take-home resources that help participants translate information into everyday action.
