Morris Healthy Eating is one of eight Healthy Eating Minnesota projects funded by Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Minnesota, a nonprofit independent licensee of the Blue Cross and Blue Shield Association. Healthy Eating Minnesota is an initiative of Prevention Minnesota, Blue Cross’ commitment to improve the health of Minnesotans by decreasing tobacco use and reducing obesity through healthier eating and increased physical activity. Changing these behaviors can dramatically improve health and control health care costs.
Prevention Minnesota is funded by settlement proceeds from Blue Cross’ historic lawsuit against the tobacco industry.
