| Please Describe Your Project In Detail | Jua Wellness and Nutrition is a holistic approach to healing. Our approach is not to treat symptoms but identify the root cause and work with our clients to heal emotionally, physically, spiritually and mentally. |
| Please explain how your project meets the requirements of the American Rescue Plan | We work directly with individuals both in person and online (if requested) to assist with individuals who may be overcome with stress, anxiety, emotional eating etc as a result of the pandemic. We reintroduce clients to nature, introduce some to yoga and meditation as well as sound healing. Our program is one of empowerment and accountability with an established success rate. |
| Where would your project take place? | In person or via Zoom |
| How much will your project cost in total? | 35.500 |
| Do you have any matching funding sources from other local governments, private entities, non-profits, or philanthropic entities for your project? | No |
| Please describe the source and list amounts of any other funding. | |
| What portion of the project are you asking the city to fund? | |
| If funded, when would your project start? | March 1, 2022 |
| How long would your project take to complete? | One year |
| What milestones would you use to measure your project’s progress? | Monthly progression and feedback as well as individualized reports for the client. |
| How would you ensure accountability and transparency throughout the project lifecycle? | Keeping active, accessible records of all client progress and fund allotments |
| If successful, how would your project benefit the community? | Our program can be used by anyone, even children as it involves no medication, just participation and individual accountability for teens and adults. Exposing individuals to a natural way of healing their anxieties and emotions is ideal. We have access to a beautiful city surrounded by water, hiking trails and outdoor areas for meditation. |
| How will you attract community buy-in for your project? | Via social media, radio spots and other outlets |
| Is there anything else you would like us to know about your project? | Holistic Wellness is an ancient practice centered around our own energy as a tool or healing. This is a great way to provide a natural response to mental health issues and anxieties as a result of the bodies response to the constant Covid media presence. I am currently in the process of setting up wellness education sessions within the recreation centers across Chattanooga. |
