Your Health, Your History, Your Healing

The Faith Community Research Network (FCRN) invites you to register for their "Your Health, Your History, Your Healing" event that will take place on Saturday, November 23rd at Greater King Solomon Baptist Church (4638 4th St, Detroit, MI 48201) and via Zoom from 11am to 1pm. This event is aimed at bringing our community together to engage in critical conversations about advancing health through precision medicine and the growing role of genomics.

Join us for a day of empowering discussions led by experts, including a genetic counselor, an oncologist, and community members whose lives have been impacted by genetic cancers. Together, we will explore how precision medicine and genetic counseling can shape the future of personal and community health.

Take this opportunity to connect, learn, and engage in transformative discussions that will inspire informed choices and foster a healthier, more knowledgeable community. Your presence is essential in driving these conversations forward!
