HHS launches voluntary healthy-living initiative for health centers

HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced a voluntary initiative at the Piedmont Access to Health Services center in Chatham, Virginia, encouraging health centers to make chronic-disease prevention and healthy living a routine part of care. The effort calls on centers to promote nutritious eating, physical activity, adequate sleep and other preventive habits, give patients practical guidance, and equip staff with resources to support healthier choices.
