Women’s Health Forum is October 26

The 20th annual Women’s Health Forum sponsored by Speaker of the House Bob DeLeo is set for this Thursday, Oct. 26, at Winthrop High School, from 6-8 p.m.

This yearly event, which has grown hugely since its inception 20 years ago (wow, where does the time go?), is co-sponsored by the East Boston Neighborhood Health Center, and will provide timely and pertinent information for women regarding their unique health issues.

This year’s forum will feature Channel 7 news anchor Jadiann Thompson as the keynote speaker and attorney Valerie Giglio, a stroke survivor.

Free flu shots will be provide and local health-care providers will be on hand to answer questions and provide information about women’s health issues.

We urge as many of our readers as possible to attend this always-informative event — what you learn just might save your life.
