UnitedHealthcare employees recently delivered reading corners
to Children’s Square USA, Primary Health Care Inc. -
Marshalltown, All Care Health Center and Myrtue Medical Center –
assembling tables and chairs, decorating the space and providing
health and nutrition information.
Sesame Street reading corners provide children visiting their
doctors’ offices with a colorful place filled with age-appropriate
books that encourage reading and healthy-eating habits, and help
make the visits more enjoyable.
The donations are part of UnitedHealthcare’s Healthy Habits for
Life partnership with Sesame Workshop, the nonprofit educational
organization behind Sesame Street, which offers tools and resources
to help parents and caregivers gain a greater understanding of the
relationship between healthy habits and children’s healthy
growth.
