Health fairs help promote
a healthy lifestyle
Health fairs are an effective way to provide valuable health information
and screening services to large numbers of people in a convenient “one-stop
shop” format. Volunteers are essential to staff and provide logistical
support to the fairs.
Your time and talents, both medical and non-medical, are needed to help with
various positions at upcoming community health fairs.
UCD has been a supporter of the Black Church Initiative Health Fair with
several HSC providers participating in the annual event. This year’s
Faith and Health Ministries Collaborative Health Fair is being held Saturday,
Feb. 19, at the Renaissance Denver Hotel.
If you’d like to volunteer, contact Lucille Johnson at lucille@denverblackchurch.org
In the spring, volunteers will be needed to help provide free and low-cost
health screenings for the University of Colorado Hospital’s 9HealthFair.
