A Program That
Understands You
A Happy, Healthier Lifestyle Is Achievable! For many people, a healthier lifestyle may feel out of reach. Sorogi’s evidence-based programs, rooted in science and compassion, prove otherwise. With structured guidance, resources, and a supportive community, achieving better health is possible. Our programs have helped participants see measurable improvements in key health indicators, including:
Lower blood sugar levels, leading to improved diabetes control
Enhanced ability to maintain a balanced diet and incorporate physical activity into daily routines
Better blood pressure management
Taking care of your health doesn't mean letting go of your cultural traditions; it means finding ways to honor them, while making choices that support your well-being. We recognize that health is deeply intertwined with culture, community, and lifestyle. Some traditional foods might not be the best for our blood sugar, cholesterol, or waistlines, but they’ve been passed down for generations in our communities, connecting us with our history.
At Sogori, we understand the challenges of making dietary changes when food is a deeply shared experience. We also know that underserved populations often face unique barriers to accessing and implementing health solutions. Our programs are designed by and for our communities, helping you make meaningful, manageable changes that respect your heritage while supporting your health.
By tweaking recipes to make healthy versions of traditional comfort foods, incorporating exercise, and sharing community wisdom, we help you enjoy the food you love with the people you love, creating a balance that celebrates your heritage while promoting a healthier you.
Empowering individuals
and communities
One of the most empowering aspects of Sorogi’s programs is our commitment to helping you take control of your health. It’s not about being told how to live your life—it’s about learning how to do it for yourself.
Sorogi program participants learn how to:
Monitor their blood sugar and/or blood pressure
Make healthier food choices
Cook at home with affordable, healthy recipes for individuals and families
Stay active in ways that fit their lifestyle and schedule
