WHAT FOLKS ARE SAYING.....
When I moved to the West Bank of Jefferson Parish, I was looking for a way to make friends. Be Well-Come Together did much more than that for me. I found a place to exercise, talk, eat, and study with others in the community. I have participated in the exercise class, the meditation class, the the workshops on financial health, and the STAR program. I love the way this group brings together all types of people from the area! - Mary H
