Jackie Hoffman: Let's Change the World - R4R 359

Jackie Hoffman is from the Garfield Park neighborhood, on Chicago's West Side. It's only three miles from the trendy West Loop, but as Jackie says, it's "the other side of America." The West Loop is known for its restaurant scene, while Garfield Park doesn't even have a grocery store. The average life expectancy for West Loop residents is 85; it's 67 in Garfield Park. That statistic is personal for Jackie. Worried by his mother's unhealthy lifestyle as she approached that age, he created a diet and exercise plan for her. Then, encouraged by its success, he expanded his outreach. He founded Peace Runners 773, a non-profit that brings awareness to holistic health and wellbeing while creating safe spaces for movement in underserved communities.
