Partnership in developing ways to improve health in the community
By Janice Barbee, Cultural Wellness Center
The Backyard Initiative (BYI) is a partnership between Allina and the community surrounding Allina headquarters (on Chicago and Lake) to develop ways to improve the health of the community. The Cultural Wellness Center engages community residents in Community Health action Teams (CHATs) to generate ideas and strategies that are implemented by residents that will have an impact on personal health and the health of the community.

A Poetic Invitation to See the World of Birds
I am a follower of The Alley Newspaper.
I once resided in the Seward area and enjoyed the neighborhood and community feeling. I spent many hours at the Seward Co-op and Deli””a great place.
I do have a concern for the dwindling bird population in areas of the city including the great areas of Phillips-Seward and other areas included in your news and circulation.
Thank you for caring,
Cassandra
