New immigrants to the Lower Mainland usually arrive excited, healthy and ready to contribute to their new communities. But the stress of re-establishing a working and social network can overshadow the need for proactive health care.
The Multicultural Health Fair on February 23rd is an event that strives to connect people and multi-lingual health resources in Vancouver. To support this year’s theme of “Promoting Multicultural Health” there will be cooking & fitness work shops, health screenings and healthcare exhibitors. If you are a health and wellness organization, and you would like to offer your services to Vancouver’s multi-cultural communities, this would be a great place to do it. Hummingbird is offering a discounted rate to help you translate your materials in preparation for the event. Contact us to discuss.
*Important note to translators: The Fair is in need of volunteer interpreters. For more information on how you can get involved, visit the Multicultural Health Fair site.
