Educating women about healthy living

Posted

On Jan. 12 the Nassau County Section of the National Council of Negro Women, Inc. held an educational seminar, “Women to Women: Living Longer, Living Smarter,” at the Five Towns Community Center in Lawrence.

Participants developed health goals for the new year, played a game of Healthy Bingo and completed their family medical history. The American Association of Retired Persons (AARP) provided materials for the seminar.

The National Council of Negro Women, Inc. was founded in 1935 as a non-for-profit organization to provide support through education, economics, health, and social services to women, children and their families.

Meetings are held on the third Thursday of every month from 7 to 9 p.m. at the Five Towns Community Center, 270 Lawrence Ave., Lawrence.
