Sisterhood Agenda To Celebrate Women’s Health Week May 17

 

Now in its third year, Sisterhood Agenda will implement “SHE: Sisters Healthy and Empowered,” in celebration of National Women’s Health Week on Friday, May 17, from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. at Franklin Powell Park in Cruz Bay.

Sharing space with VITEMA’s outreach event during the day, Sisterhood Agenda will provide SHE activities, health information, and coordinate fitness demonstrations for residents in the Cruz Bay park.

Health issues such as obesity, hypertension, diabetes, cancer, stroke and heart disease are familiar concerns for St. John residents, explained Sisterhood Agenda president Angela Coleman.

“This is a fun event, but one that also has a purpose,” said Coleman. “We can be healthy and empowered by making good choices.”
