360 LIFE Center supports youth and families

At the 360 LIFE Center in Flint, Linnell McKinney, known as “Coach Linnell,” leads a range of programs that provide holistic support to youth and their families. One of the cornerstone initiatives is the “Meetup and Eat Up” program, where children not only receive nutritious, free meals but also participate in character-building activities during mealtime. “It’s not just come and eat,” Linnell explains. “We’re sitting down as a family, affirming you with different affirmations, having prayer, and then we break off into the program.” The Center also offers a culinary program that teaches families how to prepare healthy meals at home, promoting mental and physical well-being.
