Alabama News Center — Page sisters create wellness company in Birmingham, Alabama, to address public health issues
By: Sym Posey
Jamilah Page acquired a love for helping others from her dad.
“I wanted to be a psychologist … I remember one day my dad let me act like a therapist,” she said. “It was a very pivotal moment for me. It definitely inspired us, especially me, to be in this work.”
Page, now a registered dietitian nutritionist (RDN) with a Ph.D. in nutrition (emphasis in community nutrition and public health), and her sister, Hadiyah Page, who has a Master of Public Health (MPH) with a concentration in maternal and child health and is a medical doctoral candidate, have partnered to create A Fresh Page (AFP) LLC, which addresses health disparities, food insecurity, nutrition and other public health concerns in low-income populations.
