By offering not only health services but also collaborating with organizations like the Harry Chapin Food Bank, we aim to address multiple facets of well-being.”

The Health Fair goes beyond health services, aiming to create a vibrant and inclusive atmosphere for all attendees. Families can enjoy a variety of activities, including children’s bounce houses and interactive programs designed for all age groups. Complimentary food and refreshments will be available throughout the day, enhancing the overall experience for participants.
