Change Your Palate's Founder & Owner, Shaniqua Simuel, takes us along on her personal journey through health and wellness. Shaniqua, a native of western North Carolina, values selfless service and has made this a fervent practice in her life both locally and abroad among those living in poverty. While this passion has been innate, it really began to flourish while she was pursuing her Master of Science in Public Health at Campbell University. Throughout her education, she most valued her time serving senior citizens of rural North Carolina with Type II Diabetes and Hypertension. This was done by way of addressing food insecurity. Upon graduation she began an exciting adventure serving in the Peace Corps. There she was given the opportunity to provide her skills to the indigenous people of Ethiopia.

Come hear more about Shaniqua's passion and commitment to her community and her business, Change Your Palate, with focus on healthy, affordable eating habits for individuals suffering with chronic diseases such as Type II Diabetes & Hypertension.

In loving memory of our community leader and friend, Robert Simmons.

Kids, children, and babies are welcome to join. Younger kids can play in our unsupervised kids room off main room which is equipped with toys, a chalk wall, coloring books, books and Disney plus.

Our ACNC m embers can receive free transportation to and from any wellness center event by calling ModivCare for a reservation: 1-833-498-2262

Let's do better together!
