Attendees will be able to visit our various screening booths for quick and confidential health checks, including:
HIV Screening

Flu Shot Clinic
As flu season approaches, it's more important than ever to protect yourself and your loved ones. Our flu shot clinic will offer free flu vaccinations to attendees, helping keep the community healthy and safe.
Diabetes Screening
Blood sugar testing will be available for early detection of diabetes. Our healthcare professionals will provide personalized advice on managing or preventing diabetes, as well as information on healthy eating and lifestyle choices.
Blood Pressure and Cholesterol Checks: Early detection of heart disease risk factors is critical. Get your blood pressure and cholesterol checked to ensure you're on the path to heart health.
Resources and Education
In addition to health screenings, the event will feature a wide array of community resources and educational opportunities. Our carnival-style booths will provide information on LGBTQ health, mental health support, nutrition, sexual health, and local services. We’ll also have on-site professionals available to answer questions and provide guidance on various health concerns.
Community Speakers and Workshops
Throughout the day, attendees can listen to community speakers who are passionate about health and wellness. These experts will focus on topics important to the LGBTQ community, such as mental health, sexual health, chronic disease prevention, and the importance of regular health screenings. There will also be interactive workshops where participants can learn about stress management, fitness, and self-care techniques.
Inclusive and Welcoming Environment
Our Health Fair is not just about medical care; it’s about creating a supportive, inclusive space where everyone can feel valued and accepted. The LGBTQ community faces unique health challenges, and this event is designed to address those needs while ensuring that all attendees, regardless of background, feel welcome. We encourage everyone to come together, learn from each other, and celebrate our community's strength and resilience.
