Community Health Fair Planned At Fuller Park In Napa

NAPA COUNTY, CA — Napa County is preparing to host its annual Community Health Fair on Sunday, April 16, in honor of National Public Health Week, county officials announced Friday.

National Public Health Week is April 3-9 and focuses on the theme of “Centering and Celebrating Cultures in Health” to highlight belonging, connections, and support of health and quality of life. Building upon the success of this event last year, the family-friendly fair will bring together multiple community organizations and county programs to offer free health and safety information, resources, fun activities, and a wide variety of health assessments at no charge.

During the event which runs from 1 p.m.- 3 p.m. at Fuller Park, 560 Jefferson St. in Napa, community members can take a Zumba class, win raffle prizes, participate in an art activity, learn how to administer hands-only CPR, engage with community partners, receive a COVID-19 vaccine or booster, and more.

“Napa County Health and Human Services Agency welcomes another opportunity to host our Community Health Fair,” said Jennifer Yasumoto, Napa County HHSA Director. “This event allows us to come together with other providers to offer a wide range of programs, information about resources available to our community, and engaging wellness activities.”

All ages are welcome to attend the free event. Registration is not required.

“As we enter the final phases of the COVID-19 pandemic and adjust to new social norms, we know that we can make our communities healthier, safer, and stronger when we support and stay engaged with one another,” said Dr. Christine Wu, Napa County Health Officer and HHSA Deputy Director of Public Health. “The Community Health Fair will allow our residents to come together and learn how they can each do their part in making our world a safer and healthier place to live.”
