2nd annual Community Health and Resource Fair

WHEN:

Saturday, October 19th from 11 AM - 1PM

Shades Mountain Elementary School

This Hoover community health fair is a free event open to individuals and families of all ages on Saturday, October 19th, 2024 from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at Shades Mountain Elementary School. This fair offers access to a wide range of services, including math and reading resources, health screenings, fitness demonstrations, mental health support, and nutrition advice. Attendees will also have access to various local healthcare providers. In addition to the over 20 organizations and businesses, there will be food trucks and fun activities for children. Kulture City’s Sensory Activation Vehicle will be on site for any attendees in need of sensory relief during the event. We understand that access to healthcare and wellness resources can sometimes be challenging, and this event is our way of giving back, making sure that everyone has the support they need. Attendees will have the unique opportunity to engage directly with healthcare professionals and service providers who can offer academic resources, guidance on managing health issues, and staying proactive about personal wellness. Our goal is to create a culture where wellness is a fundamental part of daily life. By providing our citizens with the tools they need to take care of their health, we can build a stronger, more resilient community. This event is championed by nurse Elisabeth Goodman and other Hoover community members. Goodman’s dedication to prioritizing student health has helped earn Shades Mountain Elementary School recognition as a 2024 America’s Healthiest School Award recipient. Goodman is being recognized as one of the educators, administrators,thought leaders, and collaborators passionately committed to equitable whole child health.
