Back in March, Euniqué Wilson considered himself a typical high school freshman, playing trumpet in the marching band at Atlanta’s Tucker High and dreaming about getting his driver’s license.
When COVID-19 decimated everyone’s plans, Euniqué and his mother came to their hometown of Savannah to quarantine with extended family. Then May’s news cycle brought the shocking murders of Ahmaud Arbery and George Floyd and changed him forever.
Many within our Black community suffer from chronic sicknesses, like diabetes and heart disease. This is no surprise when so much of the neighborhoods where those Black people live lack sidewalks or any other safe means to travel without an automobile.
Our team working with the Racial & Ethnic Approaches to Community Health Grant is focused on improving the health and increasing the needed resources for Chatham County s low-wealth Black population. We can do this because the grant is awarded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to the partnership of the YMCA of Coastal Georgia and Healthy Savannah. It is a five-year grant, originally awarded in 2019 for $3.4 million. We are in year three of the grant.
