NEW YORK, April 25, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Black Health Matters is hosting a summit and health fair on the 30th of April, 2022.

About Black Health Matters
African Americans have poor health outcomes on nearly every disease index; the community is either at higher risk for developing an illness or die from it in greater numbers. While access to health insurance and socioeconomic status play a significant part in these health disparities, there is also a lack of awareness about preventive steps. Black Health Matters provides information about health and well-being from a service-oriented perspective.
