Thank you to everyone who joined us for our first Community Champions discussion in partnership with Hand Heart Soul Project

Here are our goals:

🌱 Goal 1: Build a Community Champion Program
We aim to develop the Community Champion program curriculum with the support of several existing Clayton County "community champions."

👥 Goal 2: Recruit 10 Community Champions
We are looking for 10 passionate individuals, including youth, adults, and senior citizens, to participate in the program. Learn more about how you can make a difference in your community!

📚 Goal 3: Monthly Training and Support
Once selected, community champions will convene for eight monthly meetings. These sessions will provide training and support on various topics, including nutrition education, physical activity, storytelling, building community relationships, social media, and developing messaging.

💡 Goal 4: Action Issues and Micro-Grants
By September 29, 2024, our community champions will identify one or more action issues. To support these initiatives, they will receive micro-grants that will help turn their ideas into reality.

🎉 Goal 5: Clayton County Annual Gathering
By September 29, 2024, we will host the Clayton County Annual Gathering. This event will bring together Community Champions, members of the Clayton Collaborative, and residents from SNAP-Ed eligible areas.

🌟 Join us in making a positive impact in Clayton County! Together, we can create a healthier and more vibrant community. Stay tuned for updates and get ready to be a part of the change! 💪

Our aim is to educate community decision-makers about nutrition and physical activity, and together, we will develop an action plan to support the identified action issues.
