Roslyn Young-Daniels says she founded Black Health Matters (BHM) over a decade ago to bring health awareness to the community. It was around the time of the Affordable Care Act. Young-Daniels tells Audacy Atlanta's Maria Boynton that she wants people to take what they learn through BHM and "be fearless in advocating for themselves" when dealing with the healthcare system.
Saturday, February 11, BHM brings its free health summit series to Atlanta. It's being held at the Loudermilk Conference Center and will feature free health screenings, immunizations, fitness sessions, educational panels, workshops and more.
According to Young-Daniels medical professionals, along with specialists in health, wellness, and chronic illness will bring health awareness to the community. "It's a great opportunity to get your health questions answered."
