Guests will have the opportunity to tour TrueCare’s new primary care and dental offices, and children can enjoy interactive activities in the “Kid’s Zone” designed to make wellness fun. “Rooted in our mission to provide care within reach, Flourish & Nourish is more than just a health fair,” said Briana Cardoza, Chief Business Development Officer at TrueCare. “This event is thoughtfully designed to break down barriers and bring essential services and resources directly to the community in a welcoming environment where families can feel seen, supported, and celebrated.” In partnership with the University of California Health Milk Bank, the event features a breast milk drive to help ensure medically fragile and premature infants have access to the nourishment they need.
