G/CC and the 50th Annual Florida Keys Health Fair

By Bronte Walsh, Prevention Specialist

The Guidance Care Center’s Prevention Program was thrilled to be a part of the 50th Annual Florida Keys Health Fair that took place on Saturday, February 5. The event provided free services and screenings for dental health, mental health, children’s health, vision, and so much more to the residents in Key West and Marathon, FL. Their team has set their efforts on raising awareness about G/CC’s different programs offered to the community and continues to get G/CC’s name out there. I was proud to represent our Project Success program, which focuses on educating high school students on mental health, providing individual and group counseling support, and conducting monthly school-wide awareness activities at Key West High School. This February played host to Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month and this apparent at the fair where dating quizzes and information about the warning signs was available to adults, children, and families that attended the event.
