In episode 24 of ‘Eat Your Greens with Dr. Black,’ Dr. Black speaks with Bill Jollie, founder of the nonprofit Interrupt Hunger. They discuss how his organization uniquely addresses both obesity and food insecurity, and how building healthier communities starts with individual effort. Bill shares his inspiring journey, including his fight against leukemia, and how it led him to create a program that motivates people to adopt healthier habits while giving back. The conversation touches on practical steps like forming accountability teams, incorporating better eating practices, and the immense impact of volunteering. Dr. Black also discusses how doctors can screen for food insecurity and the new Corridor Primary Care Food Pantry. Tune in for an insightful talk on taking better care of ourselves and our neighbors.
