The program includes a free six-week family membership to the Y, family fitness activities, family nutrition education, hands-on cooking demos, budget-friendly healthy recipes and tastings, meal kits for recreating recipes at home, family mindfulness and resilience strategies, giveaways and more.
FIT-Together takes place from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. on Tuesdays from April 2 through May 7 at the Hammond Family YMCA, 7322 Southeastern Ave.
The program is made possible in part by a partnership between Franciscan Health, the Crossroads YMCA and the Purdue University Extension – Nutrition Education Program.
