There's a lot you can do

We all want health care costs to be lower, but did you know that there’s a lot that you and I can do every day to reduce our risks of developing chronic illnesses like heart disease and diabetes? Healthy City Fall River is a project that is working to get everyone involved in making our lives healthier, not only to lower the cost of medical care but so each of us lives stronger and better every day.

Most chronic illnesses like diabetes, heart disease and lung cancer don’t just happen by themselves. For most people, these diseases develop when they eat too much, smoke too much or fail to get enough exercise every day. But these illnesses don’t have to happen. See what you can do to be sure that your life is a long and healthy one.

Nearly everyone wants a community with clean streets and no crime. The trouble is, we all want someone else to solve these problems. Healthy City Fall River is about everyone working to make Fall River a cleaner, safer and healthier place to live and work.
