On Friday, August 07, Via Care is hosting a free community health fair in honor of National Health Center Week.
The event will offer health screenings, resources and activities for families, friends and neighbors. The goal of the health fair is to highlight the role community health clinics play in providing affordable care, especially after the Lineage Fire and its ongoing concerns.
The fire broke out around 2:30 p.m. on June 17 at the Lineage cold storage warehouse located at 1400 S. Los Palos Street. After the fire took almost a week to put out, Via Care’ team provided free healthcare services to more than 250 patients with essentials and resources to cope with the smoke-related health impacts.
The health fair will showcase how community clinics are crucial to locals not just during emergencies but also on an everyday basis. The event will also include free dental screenings, insurance enrollment, mental health resources and school supplies for the little ones.
Time: 10:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.
When: Friday, August 7, 2026.
Where: 507 S. Atlantic Blvd., Los Angeles, CA 90022.
