Anisia B., 24 years old, participated in Project Wellness beginning in November 2015. 
According to Anisia, “When I first heard of the Urban League, I did not know what to expect. I honestly did not want to participate but it was a free service. When I went to the first meeting, I met with my coach, Tashia, and I had a really good time. When I had questions I did not hesitate to ask, and my coach would answer every questions I had, if she did not know the answer, she would find out. I must admit when I started the program I did not have the best intentions but after the first meeting I started to look forward to meeting with my coach. Tashia encouraged me to work harder and be healthier. We would set goals and she would ask about my progress. When I got admitted to the hospital to deliver my son, my coach was right there. She tried to talk me through the contractions but I did eventually get an epidural. After giving birth she still kept in contact with me and would help giving me advice not only with my child but also in life and in health. I have learned many things that I never even knew existed. The classes and workshops were really informative. I no longer live in Florida and I still continue to keep in contact with my coach. I would highly recommend this program to any pregnant woman.”
