A Focus on Community Healing
On April 15, 2026, The Links, Incorporated hosted the Black Family Wellness Expo at the Boys & Girls Club of Camden County in New Jersey. Designed as a community-centered initiative, the event focused entirely on health, holistic wellness, and family support to help residents foster healthier environments. Families were given direct, free access to essential health information and screenings, including vital blood pressure, blood sugar, and cholesterol checks.
Maternal Support and Youth Education
Recognizing that a happy home begins with a strong, supported foundation, the expo placed a heavy emphasis on maternal health. The event connected attendees with doula support and diabetes education to empower new and expecting mothers. Youth attendees were also prioritized, receiving crucial on-site screenings for lead exposure, hearing, vision, and dental health to ensure the next generation is healthy and thriving.
Building Happier Homes
Beyond individual medical screenings, the expo united local organizations to equip families with the knowledge necessary to maintain a safe and loving household. Local police, fire, and sheriff departments led safety education sessions, including hands-on AED demonstrations for household emergencies. With support from organizations like Southern Jersey Family Medical Centers, Virtua Health, and Jefferson Health, the expo served as a powerful model for building strong, resilient, and healing homes across the American community.
