Chula Vista’s Let’s Connect Expo

Start the New Year off right! In collaboration with the City of Chula Vista, the Health and Human Services Agency South Region would like to invite you to their first resource event: Chula Vista’s Let’s Connect Expo. The free event is open to the public and will be held on Saturday, January 30th from 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM at Chula Vista High School on 820 4th Ave, Chula Vista, CA 91911. The purpose of the event is to support families by connecting them with useful resources and enrichment opportunities that can meet their needs and inspire them to strive for something greater in the New Year.

The event will be divided into three zones – Health, Safety and Thriving:

  • Start the New Year by knowing your numbers in the Health zone. This zone will have health screenings including blood pressure and BMI. If you have New Year’s resolutions that focus on personal health goals, get practical advice to improve your chances of success by learning how to prepare delicious, healthy meals and snacks and find out where there are physical activity resources available in your community. 
  • The Safety zone is designed to help your family be prepared for emergencies. Learn how to create a disaster plan and an emergency kit to help sustain your family in case of an emergency. This year we can expect lots of rain from El Niño so come and learn how to stay informed of potential flooding throughout the county and hear from experts on what they are doing to keep residents safe.
  • The Thriving zone is designed to help you and your family prosper in the New Year throughout different stages of life. This zone will have resources from a child looking for homework assistance to an adult looking for a job. There will also be financial aid resources and tips on how to maximize your current income.

Are you ready to be healthy, safe and thriving?
