LiveWell Greenville is a coalition working to advance equitable access to healthy eating and active living in Greenville County. We bridge access to healthy foods and physical activity opportunities by convening community members and partner organizations to advance positive changes in the policies, systems and environments that shape residents’ access to health equity.
We amplify community power, engaging those who are most impacted by structural inequities in the process of systemic change that supports equitable access to healthy eating and active living opportunities. We connect, convene, support and facilitate in response to what our community sees as priorities in making healthy living accessible and sustainable – always centering the voices of those closest to the problems.
We advocate for structural changes that ensure long-term equitable access to healthy foods and physical activity opportunities. Our work aims to build trusting and inclusive spaces where communities not only have access to health-promoting resources, but feel comfortable utilizing them. We envision a Greenville County where every zip code has comprehensive community infrastructure and support systems that allow individuals to move towards permanent food security, health and wellbeing.
We facilitate the collaboration of multiple sectors, partners, and organizations to share expertise, perspectives and resources that promote healthy eating and active living. Convening cross-sector coalitions and workgroups, we build long-lasting relationships that work together to address health disparities and bridge access to community resources.
Our work is organized into the areas of Food Security, Active Living, and Health Equity. These are our three Coalitions, and their members best able to define and address the particular needs of the community in specific populations or settings.
