Eat Well. Play Hard. Binghamton! (EWPHB), the pilot program of the Healthy Lifestyles Coalition (HLC), focuses on the neighborhood served by the Theodore Roosevelt Elementary School on the North and East Sides of Binghamton where residents face serious obstacles to healthy living, such as modest incomes and the lack of any full-service grocery store nearby. From our headquarters at the Lee Barta Community Center on Liberty Street, we set out to not only improve access to healthy food and exercise but to help our community members take their health into their own hands.

Volunteers will also support supplemental United Way of Broome County work when necessary. They will be encouraged to meet with various internal staff members to learn more about each staff members’ role in the organization. They will also have the opportunity to participate in various committee meetings and professional development opportunities as necessary.
