County Health & Wellness Fair scheduled for Sept. 6
LTHU`E — The public is invited to attend the County of Kaua`i's Health & Wellness Fair
sponsored by the County of Kauai Housing Agency and Life's Choices Kauai. This year's
theme is "Together We Are Stronger."
The event will be from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Sept. 6 at the Kauai Marriott Resort in LThu`e
and will feature 60 vendors. The fair will focus on the eight dimensions of health: physical,
emotional/mental, social, spiritual, intellectual, occupational, financial, and environmental.
"Every year, hundreds of people attend our Health & Wellness Fair to learn how to
improve their health and well-being," said Life's Choices Kauai Coordinator Theresa Koki. "The
fair not only gives people access to dozens of organizations aimed at helping them to improve
their lives, but it also offers programs that are designed to motivate employees or clients to lead
healthier lifestyles and can help to reduce healthcare costs."
Information about services for people of all ages will be available at the fair. Services
include health and wellness programs, financial planning, domestic violence and suicide
prevention, alcohol and drug prevention, emergency prevention and preparedness, and more.
In addition, there will be free blood pressure screenings and flu shots will also be
administered.
