“Julydration” Event Hosted at 90 Church Street

On July 17, the WorkWell NYC Program produced a special “Julydration” meetup event on the 6th floor of NYCHA’s 90 Church Street offices coordinated and hosted by NYCHA WorkWell NYC Ambassadors Chanda Coble, Sharon Dhanraj, Paula Flynn, and Beverly Weathers.

The “Julydration” Summer 2024 gathering was a two-hour midday opportunity for 90 Church Street staff to take a break from work, join a fun gathering of colleagues and friends, and enjoy a range of fruit-infused water drinks designed to be both pleasing and health-promoting – all at no cost to participants.

“The event was so nice!” said Beverly Weathers, who serves as Administrative Manager of NYCHA’s Department of Communications as well as a proud WorkWell Ambassador. “I think we had at least 30 folks sign in and join us for the event.”

“It was so nicely put together – I really do think the event was of benefit to mind, body, and soul,” said Paula Flynn, an Administrative Manager in NYCHA’s Performance Tracking and Analytics Department. “We even sent people information about how much water they should drink during the day. And those tasty infusion recipes really are a nice way to make sure folks stay hydrated.”

WorkWell NYC and its NYCHA Ambassadors work all through the year to provide a broad range of programs to benefit the NYCHA community, including resources on healthy eating, yoga, meditation, therapy, and other health matters; fitness videos and gym membership discounts; and resources related to health equity, diversity/equity/inclusion, and justice issues.
