YPAL Launches New Healthy YP Initiative

By Tabitha Hodges – Director, YPAL Healthcare Committee

This is going to be a big year for the Healthcare Committee, and I am so proud to help introduce YPAL’s new Healthy YP Initiative.

The Healthy YP Initiative will focus on the health and well-being of our Louisville Young Professionals. YPAL understands that professionals with healthy, active, and balanced lives become even stronger leaders in our community. President Jean Lee, with the support of our Board of Directors, is excited to bring health and wellness opportunities to our members by partnering with health organizations in the community.

One of these opportunities is the new YPAL Healthcare blog sponsored by Norton Healthcare, and we are looking for bloggers! If you are a health nut, a fitness success story, or someone starting a new healthy lifestyle journey, we want to hear from you!

Each blogger will be asked to submit a short blog post each month over the next six months to be published on the YPAL website. You will be in good company, as guest bloggers from the Louisville community will also be submitting their stories. If you want to participate as a blogger or share a few of your personal experiences, tips, recipes and motivation with others, please contact me at Tabitha.Hodges@ypal.org

Also be on the lookout for health tips in the weekly update throughout the year thanks to Norton!

Sincerely,

Tabitha Hodges, Director, YPAL Healthcare Committee
Jean Lee, YPAL President
