📚✨ West AHEC is celebrating Read Across America Week in a big way! ✨📚
This week, Turner had the special honor of reading The Boo-Boos of Bluebell Elementary to students at both West Broadway and Hanson! 🐻📖We love how this story not only celebrates reading but also highlights the important role healthcare plays in our daily lives. Let’s continue to inspire the next generation of readers and healthcare heroes, one story at a time! 📚
