Cover The Uninsured Health Fair 5-13-2009

May 13, 2009 Community Health Connect put together a health fair held at the Utah County Health Department. At the fair there were several different agencies that were able to provide information and do health screenings. People were able to sign up for CHIP and Medicaid as well as get information on other services within Utah County. The Health Fair was a success. Over 130 people were able to attend and learn more about what resources are out there. CHC would like to thank the 60+ volunteers that came together to make it all happen.

Dia de Salud

Dia de Salud is a weekly Spanish health forum that provides screenings, education, resources, and social support for chronic disease prevention and control. It is a gathering place for friends and families to relax and enjoy healthy food, learn, share ideas, offer encouragement and take steps to improve their health, both individually and collectively. One-on-one counseling and personal goal setting with a trained health professional is offered to persons having diabetes and hypertension. Presentations delivered by a variety of community health experts range from mental and emotional wellness to environmental health and nutrition. Presentations are supported by activities such as healthy food preparation classes and physical fitness instruction. Weekly meetings take place every Tuesday evening at Centro Hispano, 819 South Freedom Blvd (200 West) Provo, UT from 5:00 to 7:00 pm.
