Coat the Gulf Coast
SUMMARY: Let’s Go Gulf Coast and Molina Healthcare are partnering to provide winter coats to children in Head Start programs in Jackson County, Mississippi. The initiative aims to promote healthy and active living by ensuring that all children have the proper attire to go outside, even in the cold weather. Many families may not be able to afford winter coats, so this initiative will help meet the community’s needs and empower children to stay active during the winter months. This program will provide an extra outlet for families who may be struggling financially, and it will encourage children to stay active and healthy even in the colder weather.
