🏥 Health
On Saturday, a free health event at Hamilton Community Health Network offered mammograms, flu vaccines, beauty services, food from Bella's, and a kids' zone for games and fun.
Organizers said the event aimed to break down barriers to preventive care — a key step given many Flint residents miss their annual mammogram.
