#NeighborhoodVoicesNYC: Shop Healthy NYC! Recap

We recently shared the stories of New York City shop owners and community advocates who support Shop Healthy NYC!

The program works with bodega community partners to increase the healthy options they sell, such as low-sodium canned goods, whole-wheat bread, fruits, vegetables and water.

You can encourage local businesses to provide healthier offerings. The How to Adopt a Shop Guide offers tips for working with retailers to have them offer more nutritious foods.

#NeighborhoodVoicesNYC: Lameane Isaac

The Brooklyn Public Library’s Macon branch offers Shop Healthy NYC! workshops for parents and caregivers to help their young children develop healthy eating habits. All attendees get Health Bucks to buy fresh fruits and vegetables at NYC farmers markets.

“We wanted to offer a quality program that teaches parents and caregivers how to advocate for and how to shop for healthy and nutritious foods in their communities,” says Lameane Isaac, the branch’s neighborhood library supervisor.

Ms. Isaac requested the Shop Healthy NYC! workshops for her library to educate residents on what they can do to get healthier food options in their neighborhoods, for themselves and for their families.

Shop Healthy NYC! works with local food retailers to increase the healthy options they sell.
