The annual Glendale Health Festival is a community service of the Armenian American Medical Society in collaboration with state, county and local agencies, and local healthcare and civic organizations. This comprehensive health fair provides the underserved in Glendale and the surrounding communities with important preventive health services and education they might otherwise not receive. More than 150 healthcare professionals, including physicians representing an array of specialties, nurses, dietitians and other allied health professionals, volunteer their time to provide free medical screenings and health education on conditions such as high blood pressure, obesity and proper nutrition, cancer awareness, diabetes, heart disease, bone health, and more. On-site multi-lingual medical staff provides health-related information and advice. In addition, the festival features free food, entertainment and activities for the entire family. The annual health festival, which began in 2009, serves thousands of community members.
