The Health Equity Achieved Together (HEAT) project focuses on increasing food access, improving diet quality and physical activity, and addressing barriers to healthy eating and active living in communities disproportionately affected by poverty. The HEAT team is working actively in Gallatin County, Cairo and surrounding food deserts to create a Mobile Food Pantry, expand access to healthy nutrient-dense foods in retail outlets, increase the frequency of mobile food distribution and create a supportive network of grocers, growers and local food producers.
