February is National Minority Health Month!

Did you know that heart disease and high blood pressure affect minority communities at higher rates than the general population? High blood pressure — often called the “silent killer” — has no symptoms, but can lead to heart attack, stroke, and other serious health issues if left untreated.

Early detection saves lives. A simple, painless blood pressure screening can give you the information you need to protect your heart and live longer. Know your numbers — your heart will thank you! Join us in Sandtown-Winchester to kick off this important month with blood pressure screenings and a food market!
