Little Rock, Ark. – The Arkansas Minority Health Commission invites the citizens of Phillips county to join us for our community health forum in Helena-West Helena, Arkansas, on Thursday, November 10, 2022. The event will be held from 6 to 8:00 p.m. at the Delta Cultural Center on 141 Cherry Street.
Dr. Judy Ali will serve as the evening’s presenting healthcare professional, providing details of the county’s health outcome rankings and health factors. Included in these statistics are issues that range from adult smoking and chronic diseases to limited access to healthy foods.
Following the presentation, guests will have an opportunity to participate in a Q&A session where they can address their health concerns or offer solutions that will impact the health of their communities.
The AMHC’s team will also be available during the event to provide free preventive health screenings like blood pressure, glucose, cholesterol, and BMI, for attendees.
The community health forum is free and open to the public. A free and healthy dinner will be provided on a first-come, first-served basis. All age groups are welcome to attend the event.
The Arkansas Minority Health Commission works to assure that all minority Arkansans have equitable access to preventive health care and seeks ways to promote health and prevent diseases and conditions that are prevalent among minority populations.
