Hidalgo County 2021 Wellness Fair Got Employees Engaged with Health Partners
The Hidalgo County 2021 Wellness Fair was a tremendous success!
More than 700 people registered for this year's wellness fair, including county employees and dependents, and the positive feedback we have received is overwhelming.
The Wellness Program team is thrilled to see how many county employees took advantage of this interactive event — a first for the Wellness Program.
If you attended the event but missed out on a presentation, you still have access to the event website until November 28, 2021. All the live sessions were recorded and are now available on-demand in the auditorium. Additionally, employees who were not able to register before the event can still do so and access the on-demand event as well.
The attendees most engaged during presentations and at the booths were awarded prizes worth in total over $2,000. Winners will be contacted soon with information regarding their pick-up of the prizes.
“Health is a state of complete mental, social and physical well-being, not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.”
