We want to celebrate everyone who participated in the Connect for Health Challenge and continue the conversation about what it means to build social connections for healthier communities. The Blue Cross Foundation, in collaboration with InCommons, Wilder Research, and Minnesota Compass, invites you to attend an upcoming community forum about social connections and health. Please join us to learn and share ideas about how to build social connections in your community. One event will be occurring in Rochester on August 23rd, and one event will be occurring in Duluth on September 14th.
