  • Jan. 19 Neighborhood Forum: Healthy people, healthy region

    Less junk food. More vegetables. Less television. More exercise. January is a time for making changes, and for many of us this means adopting a healthier lifestyle. At The Civic League we’re always thinking regionally, so we wonder, "what could Metro Atlanta do to improve the health of the people who live here?" Any ideas? We want to hear them!

    Please bring your suggestions and a friend to The Civic League’s third and final Neighborhood Forum on Public Health and Healthcare, Tuesday, January 19 from 6:45 until 9 p.m. at the Norcross Community Center, 10 College Street, Norcross, GA 30071. The Civic League Neighborhood Forums are free and open to everyone. Special thanks to Kaiser-Permanente for its sponsorship of this event.

    Like our previous Neighborhood Forums, this event is held in support of the Atlanta Regional Commission’s "Fifty Forward" planning and visioning initiative, an ambitious effort to prepare the 10-county region for 2058. The forums are designed to involve regular citizens in shaping the policies that influence their lives, and facilitators have worked to engage people from all around the region.
