Health Expo 2015 Health + Wellness Expo Another Success for Students

More than 500 people attended the fourth annual ACPHS Health and Wellness Expo on Saturday, September 26 which was again spearheaded by APhA-ASP students. Kicking off with the Mario Zeolla '97 5K Walk/Run, the day featured a range of health related activities including free screenings, discounted flu shots, and a medication take-back program that collected 200 pounds of unused or expired medications. One of the new additions to this year's event was a holiday toy drive for members of Albany's West Hill Community that generated a great response from participants. For all event highlights visit acphs.edu/healthexpo.
