CEC participates in Spring into Fitness Event

 The Community Engagement Core (CEC) participated in the Spring into Fitness community event hosted by the Cape Verdean Nurses Association and Bowdoin Street Health Center on Saturday, March 25 in Dorchester, MA. The CEC team's booth featured a demonstration of a water filter experiment for community members, and CEC members and trainees handed out coloring fitness event 1pages and clementines to kids. An informational fact sheet focusing on the important role metals have in our diet was developed for and shared during the event for National Nutrition Month. This was a fantastic opportunity for the CEC team  to engage with community members about environmental health and to hear their concerns.
