ALEXANDRIA, La. (KALB) – The fair occurred at Christian Love Baptist Church from 9 a.m. until 12 p.m. on December 7.
This initiative was jointly sponsored by Christus Health and AmeriCorps and included free vaccinations, complimentary flu shots, and educational resources regarding utility aid and services for the elderly.
Councilwoman Perry elaborated on the importance of these offerings for her community.
“District 3 requires medical services, utility support, and various programs; thus, they provided these resources today, which are two essential elements necessary in this area,” stated Councilwoman Perry. “We have CMAP present, providing aid with free medication. Many individuals do not utilize that. A lot of people assume that if they have insurance, they don’t qualify, but I talked with Miss Linda, and she clarified that you can have insurance and still qualify for the free medication.”
If you could not attend the health fair, Councilwoman Perry mentioned you can contact her, and she will help connect you with available resources. Her number is (318) 790-3739.
