With summer winding down and new school year right around the corner, it’s not too late to get your health in order. This Saturday, Illinois Senator Mattie Hunter and the Institute for Positive Living host the 11th Annual Health and Fitness Fair- “Good Health + Good Reading + Good Food = A Better You.” The free event takes place at the Illinois Institute of Technology and focuses on encouraging a healthier lifestyle. Everything from eye and dental exams to free physicals and immunizations for students will be offered. Senator Mattie Hunter joins us to talk about why these events are needed in the community.
