FORT MYERS — The Area Agency on Aging for Southwest Florida (AAASWFL) is thrilled to announce that it will host its first Community Health & Resource Fair on Friday, September 15, 2023 as part of its celebration of 45 years of dedicated service to the community’s older adults, individuals with disabilities and caregivers.

The fair will offer free health screenings, community resources, education and more. It will be held on September 15 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Area Agency on Aging for Southwest Florida located at 2830 Winkler Avenue, Suite 112, Fort Myers, FL 33196.
