Healthy Minds, Healthy Bodies

New in Fall 2023, SRACLC will inherit the highly successful Healthy Minds Healthy Bodies (HMHB) program formerly led by the Mundelein Park and Recreation District. The program’s goal is to promote positive living for veterans who were honorably discharged with a disability rating of 10% or higher through fitness and community-based therapeutic recreation. Opportunities may include golf, fitness, and aquatics membership plus a variety of monthly socials and leisure activities. If you know a veteran who would benefit from this program or would like more details, please contact Margaret Kissner at 847-816-4866.
