Come join JLLR as we learn all about women’s health issues directly impacting our community! This morning educational event will include informed speakers, a chair yoga demonstration, and opportunities to meet real people from health, wellness, and community organizations located in Little Rock. There will be three educational sessions:
Dr. Stacy Smith-Foley and Dr. Yara Robertson – self-proclaimed “breast friends” — who will speak on raising awareness about screening guidelines, risk factors (e.g., dense breasts) and more.
A panel moderated by Kenya Eddings with the Arkansas Minority Health Commission, and speakers Dr. Nirvana Manning from UAMS & the Maternal Mortality Review Board; Nicolle Fletcher, co-founder and Executive Director of Ujima Maternity Network; and Cassi Mason, Certified Professional Midwife (CPM) and Founder of The Rural Midwife & Co., LLC. They will discuss maternal health issues and raise awareness for the disparate impact of care/treatment on and for minorities.
Advanced Physical Therapy, Jovie Murtha and Ashtin Hoskins will provide information on pelvic floor exercises and therapy.
