Lake Worth West Resident Planning Group was awarded $5,000 for a new program called “Women Helping Women.”

We received one of the 13 inaugural Be Well Do Well grants.

The program will have 25 under-served Hispanic/Latina women help each other overcome stress, anxiety and depression.

Activities include Zumba, Yoga, and cooking, group sessions to build peer support, and connections to treatment and resources. 

All the work will be done virtually and in-person from Sept. 7 – June 4 in southwestern Palm Beach County.

During COVID-19, my staff has continued to provide excellent service to the families and children of the western Lake Worth community.

All of the classes and programs have moved to a virtual platform including home visiting services and our college preparation program for high school students.

As an added support, our clients stop by our community center every Tuesday and pick up food boxes, with fresh fruit, milk and meat. We are also distributing customized masks for anyone who needs face covering.

Lake Worth West Resident Planning Group is here for our community.

Please continue to social distance, wear a mask, and wash your hands regularly.

COVID-19 has set us back for the moment, but it won’t keep us down.

Our community is resilient and we’ll get through these tough times together.

As always, thank you for your support.
