SAC featured a health and wellness extravaganza at Maggiano’s South Park.  Over a dozen of health providers displayed health products and services and offered great tips on ways to incorporate all-natural forms to living a healthier life. Sponsors such as Carolinas Natural Health Center and Pillar to Post presented on environmental toxins and how to protect oneself against unnecessary exposures. Complimentary massages were provided, health assessments were conducted and more following the presentation.  Fine hors d’oeuvres were served by Maggiano’s.

Tweens, Teens, and Social Media

What are young people doing in the Queen City? Staying Ahead Carolina stays connected…
This program was customized to equip Charlotte’s youth with the tools to help them increase their awareness, keep them safe, and empower them on the Internet. Also, it focused on reputation management, so they can still have fun utilizing social networking sites but avoid the damaging effects to their reputation from inappropriate messaging.  This program was sponsored by Melange Health Solutions, a behavioral health organization.
