“There wasn’t a greasy potato chip or gooey sweet in sight Wednesday evening at the Avondale Community Center.

On a conference room table: A bowl of fruit, low-calorie snacks and diet juices.

Marlene Nuñez sat at the head of the table. The promotora was waiting for Latinas to stop at the center and sign up for free classes about healthy living. After an hour, two women had shown up. “
