In our second year of promoting education and awareness of Black health in San Francisco, we are focusing on supporting our Black youth. Join us for a half day of health education, healthy food and fun experiences centered around adolescent health and for the youth. This event will include a lite breakfast,  a panel of health professionals speaking to youth on current health trends, a cultural shopping experience at our on-site Farmer's Market and a variety of fun health educational activities suitable for participants of all ages.
