Nehzahr Selected to Serve as the Atlanta Ambassador for Hip Hop Public Health

ATLANTA - Jan. 14, 2014 - PRLog -- Atlanta's own Nehzahr, raw foodist, holistic nutritionist, motivational speaker, hip hop artist, and educator has been selected to serve as the Atlanta ambassador for Hip Hop Public Health (HHPH).  The cornerstone of HHPH programming is the use of hip hop music, short animated features, and health video games as part of a multimedia curriculum designed to motivate healthy behaviors among children and their families.

HHPH programs have all been developed through rigorous research and the results of the organization's efficacy have been published in prestigious peer reviewed medical journals. HHPH also hosts educational concerts. Health Emcees are available to host concert-style health education events across the United States. Noteworthy events include HHPH the White House (2012 Easter Egg Roll, Let’s Move! stage), and on the National Mall (2012 USDA event) in Washington DC.  HHPH programs reach 12,000 NYC students each year in the boroughs of Queens, Brooklyn, Manhattan, and Bronx and now, Atlanta, Georgia.

Nehzahr is also known as the project ambassador and leading cast member for Rimshot Urban Musical, a theatrical production designed to support awareness/preventative initiatives related to human trafficking.  He is also actively involved in the Atlanta-based Positive Arts Movement.  He performed during the 50th Anniversary of the March on Washington and facilitated a workshop during the SCLC's National Conference focusing on positive self-image.  Nehzahr is the founder of Healing and Enhancing, an organization concerned with making the earth a more harmonious place through music, food, social commentary and healthy lifestyle choices.
