Christina’s project, Good Mood Food, aims to address the interconnected chronic health issues of mental wellbeing and healthy eating. This will be accomplished through a series of workshops that combine various health-promoting skills: coping strategies, guided reflections, and nutritiously accessible meal preparation. The goal is to boost knowledge and familiarity with healthy foods and how to prepare them under limited resources for a sustainable lifetime diet. A concurrent goal is integrating mental health topics into a relaxing environment like cooking. Christina will be working with participants from the Hill District at the YMCA of Greater Pittsburgh.
