Get Screened, Learn About Health Care In Orange County At Fair

ORANGE COUNTY, CA — Sunday marked the start of National Health Center Week in Orange County and across the country, and local nonprofit Families Together of Orange County is celebrating the annual event in a big way.

On Wednesday, the nonprofit — in partnership with the Coalition of Orange County Community Health Centers — will host a community health and enrollment fair at its location in Tustin.

The Health Fair will take place on National Health Center Week's "Patient Appreciation Day," and participants will be provided with free health and vision screenings, assistance with enrollment into government programs, education about services offered at Families Together and resources available to the community.

“Families Together has come a long way in the fight to provide healthcare to communities that traditionally lack access" Families Together CEO Alexander Rossel said in a statement. "From our humble beginnings as a small clinic, we’re grateful to the community and the various partners that have allowed us to grow and provide such an expansive list of services to Orange County residents. This week, we celebrate our journey and the trust we have successfully built within our community.”

The Health Fair is open to the Orange County community and takes place on Wednesday from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the Families Together Wellness Center, 621 W. 1st St. Tustin, 92780.
