Harlem Business Wellness Initiative
The Harlem Business Wellness Initiative (HBWI) works to provide health care to local communities. Harlem is a community with a particularly high prevalence of diabetes and local health initiatives are an important piece of the effort to reduce diabetes morbidity and mortality.
HBWI is the first worksite health promotion initiative for small businesses that uses a mobile team approach. Previously available only to large businesses, HBWI provides health promotion resources, counseling, and referrals to employees of small businesses in Harlem to increase use of preventive services and decrease health risk factors.
