KDHRC staffers cheered on runners at the 59th annual Peachtree Road Race on July 4th using a very special KDHRC-logoed cowbell! The Peachtree Road Race is the largest 10K in the world, and over 53,000 runners ran the course down Peachtree Street from Buckhead to Piedmont Park in Atlanta Georgia.

From all of us at KDHRC, we hope you have a Happy Holiday Season!

Eighty-six years ago today, a handful of assistants and one sleepy manager debuted on the big screen. Have any guesses? Don’t be bashful! Still have "snow" idea? If it will make you happy, we won’t keep you waiting any longer.

It’s Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs! This movie is sometimes the root of KDHRC trivia questions during the daily team meeting – and despite being asked to name all seven dwarves many times over the last year, KDHRC staffers still tend to be d***y and forget one or two. Can you name them all?

Join us in wishing KDHRC staffer Joseph Peters a Happy Birthday! Joseph is KDHRC’s resident Accounting Associate and fearlessly wrangles KDHRC’s internal operations to ensure that KDHRC functions seamlessly. BUT that is not all that Joseph does. He hosts arguably the most enjoyable team meeting of the week by finding hilarious Family Feud questions and creating absurd “Werewolf” backstories (think the game Mafia). Joseph, we appreciate you, your wits (and your wagers)!

We hope you have the best birthday!

Happy Thanksgiving! This week, a simple question posed during our daily all-staff meeting turned into a hearty debate on what the RIGHT time is to eat on Thanksgiving.

So, we turned to the Ask KDHRC Poll, where staffers could pick an early lunch (12:00p-1:59p), a late lunch (2:00p-3:59p), an early dinner (4:00p-5:59p), or a late dinner (6:00p-7:59p).

A couple of staffer notes:

🍽️ President Kristen Holtz calls her family’s late Thanksgiving meal “supper.”

🎄Executive Assistant Ginger Moff has a late lunch, so there is adequate stomach room available for leftovers and dessert during the annual evening viewing of Christmas Vacation.

💤 Accounting Associate Joseph Peters wonders how people in the early lunch window prep everything before 1:00 pm.

What do you think? Let us know when you are eating your Thanksgiving meal today! 👇

We created an online professional development course to prepare community health workers to work with low-income Black parents to protect their children’s oral health. This training increased knowledge, self-efficacy, and intentions of CHWs to conduct oral health outreach in their communities.

Another day, another pictionary post. Can you guess what our Accounting Associate, Joseph Peters, is trying to draw? Hint: It’s not the world’s ugliest dog 😊

On November 20th, KDHRC turned 16! At this age, we would be able to get our driver’s license, get a job, or even register to vote 2 years early! We are grateful for the history that has led us to the present and confident in the future of KDHRC. Wish us a happy 16th birthday in the comments!

Like many of the KDHRC staffers, Executive Assistant Ginger Moff is a Disney Enthusiast! In this photo, Ginger (middle), her daughter (left), and grandson Eric (right) share huge smiles at Magic Kingdom. Although Ginger’s first time at Disney World was in 1974, her favorite memory is of her grandson at Disney World spinning in the teacups with his mom!

This is one of Morgan’s favorite quotes; she even has it framed in her office as a daily reminder. Whether your goal for each day is to get active, connect with friends, or rest, Morgan believes every day has a purpose. What is your intention for today? Comment below!

For this week, we are highlighting the in-person program evaluation meeting for the Grown Ups Show Up campaign, a highly localized media campaign that motivates adults in the community to engage in prevention practices for youth alcohol and drug usage. During her visit to Ossining, New York, KDHRC Research Assistant Ciara Long met with the “Grown Ups Show Up” project team, Alice Joselow and Helene Kopal, and Ossining Communities That Care coalition partners. At the coalition meeting, Ciara promoted the Grown Ups Show Up campaign and a new informational video.

After the meeting, Ciara enjoyed a tour of the Hudson River town where she gained additional insight into the coalition partner agencies and their work on youth substance use prevention. Even on a rainy day, the view of the river and New York fall foliage was stunning!
