With the help of other community
partners, a Back to School Health
Fair was held August 2, 2008.
NyE Communities Coalition’s vision has always
been Empowering Families with healthy choices
to build strong youth for a healthy community.
In addition to promoting activities that are
alcohol, tobacco, drug and violence free,
NyECC encourages sound nutrition and
physical fitness.
