We have two more activities to close the 2024 Health Calendar! We invite all women to participate in the last virtual Charla entre Mujeres, this Saturday, December 14 at 11:00 CT, where they will give you advice on what to do if you find yourself in uncomfortable situations during the Christmas season. You can register using the QR code on the flyer to participate via Zoom.
If you are 19 years of age or older and in need of vaccinations, the Ventanilla de Salud in Austin is offering their last vaccination day of the year, Monday, December 16th, starting at 10 AM. Space is limited for the first 40 people, so we recommend you arrive early and with time availability.
Have a safe and healthy weekend!
