❤️ A new resource for a healthier Southside!

CHEST now has a blood pressure kiosk through our partnership with the American Heart Association, with support from the Woodbury Foundation!

This resource gives community members a convenient place to check their blood pressure, another step toward making health resources more accessible in the Greater Southside.

Stop by CHEST and get to know your numbers! ❤️

Thank you to the American Heart Association and Woodbury Foundation for helping us build a healthier community.
