Live Healthy Appalachia Food Access VISTA
 
 
 
Live Healthy Appalachia (LHA) is an Athens, Ohio-based nonprofit organization which aims to promote health and wellbeing in our Appalachian region through outreach, education, and advocacy emphasizing nutrition and physical activity. LHA’s programs support the idea that good health is a right, not a privilege. Many of our workshops are centered in low-wealth communities and occur in partnership with agencies with strong and long-standing anti-poverty missions. LHA’s sub-site VISTA will work to increase the capacity of healthy living programs in Athens County and surrounding areas in Southeast Ohio. The VISTA will focus on goals that help LHA reach a wider network of individuals in need of access to healthy foods and nutrition education.
