6th Annual Community Health Fair
July 29, 2023 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm MST
The Arizona Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (AZHCC) is hosting their 6th Annual Community Health Fair this July 29th, 2023. This is a FREE event, OPEN to the public!
According to Kaiser Family Foundation’s research in 2021, “Nearly one in four (24%) Hispanic adults overall report no usual source of care other than an emergency room, higher than the share of White adults (12%) and similar to the share of Black adults (28%).” (SOURCE: Kaiser Family Foundation, “Health and Health Care Experiences of Hispanic Adults.” Samantha Artiga, 14 July 2021, www.kff.org/coronavirus-covid-19/poll-finding/health-and-health-care-experiences-of-hispanic-adults/)
“We believe healthcare is a top concern, as it can be cost-prohibitive, difficult to provide, and have a profound impact on employees. Good health is good for business!” said Mónica Villalobos, President & CEO.
Attendees will experience:
• Arizona Sports Teams
• Free Health Screenings
• Health & Wellness Information
• Entertainment
• Raffle Prizes
• Children’s Activities
• So much more!
