2022 WELLNESS SUMMIT BREAKFAST

“Our ability to stay healthy can be addressed through how cities, towns and communities are designed,” keynote speaker Charles T. Brown told more than 85 community leaders and representatives at the 2022 Wellness Summit Breakfast.

Brown is a Rutgers University adjunct professor and founder of Equitable Cities, an urban planning, public policy and research firm focused on the intersection of transportation, health and equity. He provided advice on best practices to consider in building healthier environments for all in Alamance County.

The Wellness Collaborative is a joint effort from a wide range of local government, education, healthcare and community organizations focused on policies, systems and environmental changes that encourage healthy activity and increase access to healthy foods.
