Hello and Happy Black History Month! 

As we come to another season, we reflect on and recognize the contributions of the Black community and their tireless efforts to elevate themselves as well as their communities. We want to provide a platform for the community to gather, discuss and connect on the important subject of health. 

With that said, BCHCPA invites you to another Outreach Medical Clinic, where we will be doing Blood Pressure Checks, providing Information and Education on Chronic Diseases and will address any questions and concerns related to Health Screening, Medication and Diagnostic Tests. 

In addition to this we will provide support for Mental Health, Addiction, Chronic Diseases and Infectious Diseases. 

Finally, we encourage you to engage with the Black Healthcare Professionals on site as they are eager to connect with you, the community. Some good topics of discussion could be Access to Care and Overcoming Barriers. We would also like to support community in learning how to Navigate the Healthcare System while empowering you with valuable Information and resources.
