*UPDATE*: There are some scheduling conflicts and some branch screenings have been cancelled.
We support healthy choices! Six out of ten Americans live with at least one chronic disease, like heart disease, cancer, stroke, or diabetes. These and other chronic diseases are the leading causes of death and disability in America, and they are also a leading driver of health care costs. Walmart Pharmacies and the Y have partnered together to provide a Holiday Health Screening Event and help you assess your risk and wellness.
On December 13th from 10AM - 12PM, 18 Dallas YMCA locations will be providing screenings:
Coppell Family YMCA
Cross Timbers Family YMCA

Living healthy is about spirit, mind and body at every age and stage. The Dallas YMCA Association offers classes and programs for those dealing with chronic disease, cancer, family health, in addition to health assessments and wellness coaching.
