?? Aspire Health Goes Red for Heart Health! ?? At Aspire Health, we’re proud to stand together in support of American Heart Month! ???? Our team—both in-office and remote—donned their best red attire to raise awareness for heart health and the importance of cardiovascular well-being. Heart disease affects millions, but through awareness, education, and action, we can make a difference. Together, we’re showing our commitment to healthier hearts and stronger communities!

Started this morning reflecting on last week where Aspire Health had the opportunity to inspire other communities with our Healthy Together program at the American Public Health Association Annual Meeting in Minneapolis. Natalie Plinneke did an incredible job sharing how partnerships across clinics, technology, and community help us support the health of children and families across Monterey County. I left last week feeling inspired by all the amazing public health work happening around our country, and I am feeling hopeful this week that communities will show up to #voteforhealth #apha2024 #publichealth

Thank you, Montage Health for this incredible honor. ?I am truly humbled and grateful to be recognized for my work and commitment. This achievement is really a reflection of the support, collaboration, and hard work we put in together every day.

Aspire Health provides health and wellness education for children and families throughout Monterey County through school curriculum and health coaching, fostering long-lasting healthy habits and lifestyles. Two of our programs, Don’t Feed the Diabetes and Healthy Together, won three gold and one silver Aster Award in the Healthcare Education category. The Aster Awards are one of the most prestigious awards in healthcare and honor outstanding work in excellence and innovation.

On May 14, over 130 Monterey County elementary school students attended Healthy Youth Field Day at Cardinale Stadium, home of Monterey Bay Football Club. This event, presented by Aspire Health and Montage Health Foundation, celebrates both organizations’ commitment to promoting healthy lifestyle habits and reducing the risk of type 2 diabetes and prediabetes. Students were able to learn essential healthy habits through fun activities like soccer drills with MBFC players, an art project with Montage Health Foundation, a team-building relay with Kids Eat Right, and a movement challenge with Aspire Health’s Don’t Feed the Diabetes Beast. We’re grateful to be able to encourage healthy lifestyles for students across the county!
