Diego Rios, of Ronkonkoma, is the only winner from Long Island whose book cover design is now on display at CVS stores across the country.

"I feel like I'm expressing myself for a topic that is very important," explained Rios.

The CVS campaign is a first-of-its kind where employees submitted their artwork journal covers, which reflected their personal wellness journeys.

Rios says the goal of his design is to encourage Long Islanders to take time for themselves.

"We need time to do nothing that will help you re-energize our bodies and minds," he added.
