Health HUB
Our Health Hub Program organizes one healthcare program a month for the community of Apopka. At these events, we partner with local healthcare organizations to provide both resources and immediate healthcare services to the community, ensuring that what we offer meets the common medical needs of our neighbors.
Through our Health Hub program, we acknowledge the root causes of healthcare issues in Apopka. For example, South Apopka is a food desert, leaving many people without access to healthy and culturally appropriate food options; at our Health Hubs, we make sure to offer fresh produce for people to choose from and bring home at no cost to them.
