Americorps Week Event!

This past Friday the IFH team joined together with other Healthcorps members from around the city to participate in a day of service and learning about options for life after their year of Americorps.

We started the day off with the Gowanus Canal Conservancy helping out in a tree planting project. This project allowed us to get outside and help add some green to an otherwise very industrial part of town.

Tree planting success!




A bit muddier, but a good time had by all!

After planting trees, we headed to Sunset Park to hear a panel, do some team building, and work on goal setting for the years after service.




Thanks to all for a great day!
