Featuring educational mini-sessions, interactive movement classes, a community wellness walk, and on-site wellness services, Be Healthy, Glassboro aims to bridge gaps by connecting residents with key resources and local healthcare partners.

“Be Healthy, Glassboro is a culmination of many years of planning and organization,” says Mayor John E.
