“The purpose behind Healthy University is to help educate the community on various topics and starting it off with a modern day mother/daughter tea is perfect! We want to provide knowledge about health topics that pertain able to all age ranges,” said Chelsie Hornsby, FCMH Director of Development.

The series will be held on the third Tuesday of the month at FCMH. The topic for July will be Sun Safety presented by Tabitha Melvin, PA-C at FCMH and Universal Dermatology, September will be Birds and Bees, Help Me Please presented by Dr. Cynthia Morris, and November will be Getting You through the Winter Healthy presented by Jeannie Bihl, community educator with the Fayette County Health Department.
