The Health Fairs at the Hispanic Family Foundation help overcome barriers to access for health care services for the immigrant community.
HFF founded and hosts two health fairs: Dia de La Mujer, Live Out Love Nashville.
Día de La Mujer was created to be a space to celebrate, empower, and encourage Hispanic and Immigrant women by connecting them to health services from all over Nashville in one place. This year women and their families had access to free mammograms, raffles, job fair, and more. There was also the opportunity to create a free medical ID for children.
When Live Out Love Nashville was created in 2020, it was the first time the health service providers and schools of Nashville ever came together to reach the community in one event. They bring free mobile clinics, dental checkups, food bags, blood pressure tests, vision testing, mental health screening, unused/old medication disposal, and more! “To serve somebody with their gifts and talents, that’s love” -Diane Janbakhsh
We have continued to develop other events to help everyone receive health services.
HFF serves the community throughout the year by putting on several events that bring awareness to the organization and its mission. These community events are free to the public and are outreach opportunities for the organization.
What better way to tell the world you support the arts than with a @TN Arts Commission Arts plate. Just take your old plate to your county clerk and swap it—they will prorate your tag fees, so you don’t have to wait until your tag renewal is due. Learn more: http://tnspecialtyplates.org/
