Pennington Biomedical's first annual Senior Black American Health Fair is set for 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, May 14, at the C.B. Pennington Jr. Conference Center, 6400 Perkins Road. “We wanted to give something back to the African American community that experiences high rates of chronic diseases compared to many other ethnic groups. The health fair is designed to show the community that Pennington cares about their health and is doing something about it," said Robert L. Newton, Jr., Associate Professor and Director of Pennington Biomedical’s Physical Activity & Ethnic Minority Health Lab.
