STRONGER TOGETHER COMMUNITY HEALTH FAIR - BOSTON
When: April 27, 2025 | 11 AM - 3 PM
Where: Roxbury Community College Building 3
The American Lung Cancer Screening Initiative, in partnership with Union Capital Boston, hosted the first official Stronger Together Community Health Fair! We are so grateful for all of our community partners who made this event possible. We had 28 vendors offering a wide variety of healthcare, community and health research resources as well as 3 mobile vans including The Family Van, the MGB Community Care Van, and the CISCRP Journey to Better Health Van. It was an event-filled day from health resources and education to raffles, massages and line dancing with the Boston Rhythm Riders.
