HHC's 13th Annual Health Fair

Below please find forms to participate in the Hispanic Health Council’s Annual Health Fair.  This event is a fantastic opportunity to showcase your programs and services, celebrate your agency’s successes and share your expertise with community members, leaders, legislators and other community based organizations.  In addition to being informative and providing free health screenings, the Hispanic Health Council’s Annual Health Fair is an exciting and fun day for both adults and children, presented in an atmosphere of community celebration. 

The Hispanic Health Council’s Annual Health Fair plays a significant role in improving the health of our community members. 

In 2003:

• Over 1,000 adults and children signed in as guests to the Health Fair

• 82 providers attended

• 18 free healthcare screenings were offered, and over 2,000 conducted, with bi-lingual assistance

• HHC focused on follow up procedures for potential health problems identified during screenings and efforts to increase services to men (ie. prostate cancer screening). 

In 2004, the Hispanic Health Council has chosen to continue ensuring appropriate follow up and add screenings and providers that address a growing epidemic, obesity.

Finally, the Hispanic Health Council is proud to continue publishing the Bilingual Directory of Health and Social Services, a listing of services in the Greater Hartford area, available in hardcopy, as well as online at the Hispanic Health Council’s website. 

Should you need additional information or have questions, please do not hesitate to contact our Health Fair Coordinator at (860) 527-0856.
