Recap of Past Events

The past few weeks at AAHI have been busy, with several outreach events taking place in the community. Here's a brief recap of some of those events.

On Saturday, May 12, AAHI co-hosted a health fair for the Japanese community with the Japanese Christian Community Center of Washington and the DC-Japanese Mental Health Network. AAHI provided free screenings for osteoporosis, carbon dioxide, and blood pressure as well as education on various health topics. There were also two health lectures on mental health and dermatology.

On Saturday, May 19, AAHI attended the Bait-ur-Rahman Women's Health Fair in Silver Spring. The health fair was part of the mosque's larger Sports Weekend event. AAHI helped invite other vendors to the event and provided osteoporosis screening, blood pressure screening, and health education.

On Sunday, May 20, AAHI attended the Chinese Culture and Community-Service Center (CCACC) Health and Community Services Fair. AAHI has enjoyed a long partnership with CCACC, attending several of their health fairs in the past. Again, AAHI provided osteoporosis screening and health education.
