Welcome to the Community – and the "Jump In Here" space

This is a great place to start connecting with others, especially if you’re not sure where your post belongs just yet. Whether you’re leading a new project, facing a challenge, or celebrating a win, we want to hear from you.

To kick off some meaningful networking, introduce yourself by sharing:

:small_blue_diamond: Your name and location
:small_blue_diamond: A brief description of the work you’re currently doing or excited about
:small_blue_diamond: One challenge you’re working through—or a question you’d love input on
:small_blue_diamond: A fun fact about yourself (because it’s nice to keep things fun :blush:)

:backhand_index_pointing_down: After you post, scroll through and reply to someone else’s introduction. Drop a piece of advice, offer support, or give kudos. You never know who might help you solve a problem—or who you might inspire.

Hello everyone, I am Nelida (Neli) Hernandez, a New Health Education Specialist at Madera County Department of Public Health. Excited to meet you all virtually.

Hello! I’m Erika, a health educator for a food bank in Pennsylvania. I plan, implement, and evaluate cooking and wellness programming. I am interested in learning more about participant retention in wellness programming! A fun fact about me is that I am originally from California and that is how I learned about Leah’s Pantry.
