The Frankford Community Health Fair was sponsored by Aria Health, Health Partners and the Frankford CDC and was held on Saturday June 29th. As you can see from the slide show below, it was a beautiful day to have fun and get some basic health checks. I talked with a few people who do not have regular access to preventative health care and this can literally be a life saving day.
We’re looking forward to another event like this next year.
Spring is coming, and we all know what that means: community clean ups right here in Frankford! See below for dates and locations (note that all clean ups will be held from 10:00a – 2:00p) – and be sure to contact Raymond Gant, 215-964-7627, with questions!
We hope you can join us!

As you may know, the City’s 311 system is the best way to request non emergency City services, or to get information about City government. Even better, you can sign up to become a neighborhood liaison through the Philly 311 system. (We at the CDC are!)
