Health Fairs
To educate and encourage people to access
their local public healthcare system, the Harris County Hospital District
provides promotional healthcare services in community settings such as
health fairs at school districts, churches, non-profit organizations,
advocacy groups, and a variety of other civic group locations. Health fair participants
get access to preventive health education and screening services such as
cholesterol testing, blood pressure screening, vision testing and child
development tests. These programs promote early diagnosis and treatment of
disease, educate families on health management topics, and maximize the
community's health care agency resources.
If you are a community organization and would like to request having HCHD
services at your next event or more information about hosting a health
fair, fill out this
