The We Need to Talk Men’s Health Forum held its Boy’s and Men’s Health Celebration at the Education Culture Complex on the last Saturday of August from 9 AM to 2 PM.
The special event featured a variety of important and knowledgeable guest speakers including Cheryl Foster, Education Coordinator of the Professional Football Players Mothers Association; Dr. Jerome Robinson, Retired Cardiovascular Specialist; Lewis Thompson of the Man In The Mirror Ministry; and Gilbert Salazzar of Mens Mentorship, among other informative speakers.
An array of resource booths aligned the building ready to serve the community, namely, the San Diego Fire Department and the Southeastern Little League along with many others posted at 4343 Ocean View Blvd. Workshops, activities & resources were also made available to the Southeastern community including no-cost memory screens for brain health, job placement, and a fun zone for the kiddies.
“We are here trying to bring men and boys back together and create meaningful conversation and action, connect with other organizations and support the vendors here today,” Founder and Executive Director Terry Robinson shared. “We want to let the men of this community know how important and valuable they are as mentors.”
