We had a wonderful time at Carnaval de Salud hosted by the Hispanic Wellness Coalition, engaging with community members and gathering valuable insights through the NorTex Community Needs Assessment. It was a great opportunity to connect with the community, learn about their need and priorities, and strengthen our commitment to improving health across North Texas.

A special thank you to Dr. Anna Espinoza, Christina Shibu (TCOM student), and Fariha Sheikh (Department of Public Health student) for staffing the NorTex table and engaging with attendees throughout the event. Your dedication to understanding and addressing community needs helps build a healthier North Texas community.

We were honored to attend the annual Texas Advocates Conference and present our workshop, "Voices in Action: Co-Creating Substance Use Education Materials."

During the session, participants helped co-develop ideas for accessible substance use education materials through interactive discussions and creative design activities. Their experiences and feedback will help create more inclusive resources for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

Thank you to our presenters, Dr. Kim Fulda, Dr. Scott Walters, Omar Jeter, and Fariha Sheikh, and to everyone who participated and shared their perspectives!

TCOM was proud to participate in the Mayor's Back to School Bash & North Texas Wellness Fair sponsored by the Hispanic Wellness Coalition and the City of Forest Hill on Saturday, August 1!

Representing TCOM were Dr. Fulda, Dr. Patterson, Dr. Espinoza, Dani Ellis, Shawn Kennedy (not pictured), Ashley Leon, Mona Gonzalez (from the UNT Health Clinical Practice group), and public health students Fariha Sheikh and Omar Jeter.

Dr. Fulda's team, including Dr. Espinoza and the two students, collected NorTex Needs Assessment surveys, while Dr. Patterson's team, including Dani Ellis and Shawn Kennedy, gathered Fall Risk data. The event saw great attendance and provided a wonderful opportunity to engage with the community, promote health and wellness, and showcase TCOM's commitment to serving North Texas.

Thank you to everyone who contributed to making the event a success and a special thank you to Ashley and Mona for helping out with both projects.
