Flint families invited to enjoy health fair with free filters, detectors, and kids’ activities on May 22

Flint, Michigan – Running from 12 until 3 p.m. at the Clio Road Community Service Center, the City of Flint will bring together neighbors for a Community Health & Resource Fair on Thursday, May 22. Free and accessible to all, the event at 4805 Clio Road emphasizes providing Flint residents simple access to a range of vital services—all under one roof.

Attendees may look forward to a vibrant, friendly environment meant to help local families throughout the afternoon. From replacement cartridges to water filter pitcher systems, organizers are providing useful everyday living solutions. These free filters are likely to attract great attention given many Flint homes’ continued focus on clean water. The exhibition will also offer free smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, enabling families to remain secure in their houses.

The event’s other key emphasis is health. Anyone seeking a fast check-up or fundamental medical information will have access on-site health exams. Furthermore, visitors may learn about housing support programs and utility services, which may be useful for people negotiating challenging financial circumstances.

The fair will have kids’ games and prizes to keep things enjoyable for the youngest visitors. While parents and guardians visit the resource booths, children can anticipate activities and little surprises.

The fair will also feature Flint’s own police and fire units. Staff members from both organizations intend to visit with families, respond to questions, and distribute materials on remaining safe at home and in the community. This direct involvement intends to foster confidence and deepen ties between people and local first responders.

Mayor Sheldon Neeley shared his enthusiasm for the upcoming event, describing it as a chance for residents to connect with important services and “trusted partners” in the community.
