"The Balanced Living Fair provides Stevens-Henager College with an opportunity to showcase its business, technology, respiratory therapy and healthcare students and to provide a real-world experience where they can interact with the public as a professional," said Dr. Helena Hanson. "With the economic downturn, many employers have had to cut back on providing wellness events, so we hope the whole community will take advantage of the free screenings and healthy lifestyle information that we're offering at this event."
