HEAL Health Fair

HEAL proudly presents our first Health Fair, which will take place on March 30, 2006 at the Malcolm X Plaza.  The purpose of the event is to inform students of the organizations and resources available to them at SFSU and in the community.  This fair is also a great opportunity for health organizations to mingle and support each other in our common goal to better our communities in health, living, and education.  During the event, organizations will distribute brochures and other literary information, as well as make on-stage announcements about themselves and the services they provide.  The event will take place, rain or shine!  Save the date!

City Team

City Team is served as a rehabilitation center for the homeless.  City Team offers computer skills and vital information to enable the rehabilitees to obtain a stable work force while staying out of the drugs and alcohol scene.  It is also developed in educating their female audience about breast cancer.  However, on Saturdays, City Team has a special event where volunteers are welcome to come and help with serving hot lunches, sorting and handing out clothes, as well as participating in foot care.  On certain Saturdays, City Team will have a medical team equipped with a doctor, nurse, and pharmacist to care for those who requests for medical attention.  When volunteers are abundant, some will be asked to work alongside the medical team and engage in performing intakes and informal medical assessments.  City Team is a wonderful place to get to know the personalities behind the faces of those we see on streets.  The volunteer experience is of course very different, but it can also be very rewarding.  Previous volunteers have expressed the honorable feelings of being highly appreciated and regarded.  The people there are one of the friendliest and most thankful people volunteers will every meet.  City Team is an absolute must have experience.
