About Us
Founded in 2002 by civic leader Mitzi Perdue,
Healthy U Delmarva has made a great impact in the Tri-County area
and helped to promote healthy lifestyle changes to our local
communities. At the beginning of this year, Healthy U became part of
Salisbury University 's affiliated outreach network. "As the new
home of Healthy U, Salisbury University is proud to promote healthy
lifestyles and to uphold the legacy of Mitzi Perdue, a true civic
leader and friend to our region and this campus," said SU President
Janet Dudley-Eshbach. Mitzi Perdue is just as excited about the
change. "Having Salisbury University in charge of Healthy U is, for
me, a dream come true," said Perdue. "The University, with its
ability to provide academic rigor to the study of community health
improvement, will be able to take Healthy U to a much higher level
than any individual ever could."
