The Concept

The HER Health Expo provides a perfect way to meet the public in an open ended health screening program. A complete set of sixteen well designed banners provide a graphic backdrop to eight or more screening stations. The banners encourage individuals to adopt good health practices. The interactive screening stations reinforce these principles and prepare the way for the health counselors who meet with each participant at the end of the screening activities encouraging them to make lifestyle changes and offering them various follow up health seminars.

An Expo can be a one day event or run for several days. It can be organized in many different locations: at a fair, in a public mall, in schools or church buildings, in a town park, or in a market place. The Expo's greatest usefulness is when it is combined with a series of health seminars that follow the Expo within a week or two, presenting topics such as stress management, chronic disease prevention, mental and spiritual health, nutrition classes, etc. These are excellent ways for meeting the needs of local communities.
