Members of the Blue Zones team in Corry, PA talk on the Joel Natalie Show via Zoom, Jun. 9, 2021. Screen grab by Shani Bills, TalkErie.com.

On our Wednesday health focus, we talked about The Blue Zones Project, a community-wide, evidence-based approach to improving health and well-being.  Live longer, live better—that’s the goal, and it seems to be working in the nearby Blue Zone of Corry.  Leaders from the Corry Blue Zone Project joined us: Jennifer Eberlein, Community Program Manager and Organization Lead; Shannon Wohlford, Engagement Lead; and Ashley Lawson, Public Policy Lead.  Also on the Zoom call was Melissa Lyon, Director of the Erie County Department of Health, about expanding the Blue Zone beyond Corry and throughout the County.
