Health is wealth, and in Houston, our community has long embraced the tradition of gathering, shared knowledge, and empowering one another to live stronger, healthier lives. Continuing that legacy, Harris Health System invites residents to the FREE Health & Wellness Fair at Gulfgate Health Center, located at 7550 Office City Drive, Houston, TX 77012.

This uplifting event, held on Saturday, September 20, from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM, is more than just a fair—it’s a lifeline of resources designed to keep Houstonians informed, proactive, and engaged in their health journeys.

A Tradition Rooted in Service

For decades, Harris Health has been at the forefront of public health initiatives, bridging gaps in care and ensuring that underserved communities have access to essential services. The Gulfgate Health Center continues this tradition by bringing doctors, nurses, and community partners directly to the people they serve.

The Health & Wellness Fair reflects Houston’s ongoing commitment to prevention, education, and empowerment. In a city as diverse and dynamic as ours, the importance of free screenings and health education cannot be overstated—especially for families juggling work, school, and caregiving.

What to Expect: Screenings, Immunizations, and More

Visitors to the fair will be able to access:

• Health Screenings — From blood pressure checks to vital health assessments, participants can take the first step toward early detection and prevention.
• Immunizations — Protecting Houston families from preventable diseases remains a top priority.
• Women’s Health Services — Free cervical cancer screenings, HPV screenings, and mammograms will be available, ensuring women have the resources they need to safeguard their health.

Appointments for women’s health services can be scheduled in advance by calling 281-454-0913.

Why It Matters Now

Houston is a city built on resilience, and the wellness of its people is at the heart of that strength. With chronic illnesses like diabetes, hypertension, and cancer disproportionately affecting communities of color and underserved neighborhoods, events like this one play a critical role in turning the tide.

As Mayor John Whitmire recently reminded Houstonians in a separate health initiative, “Our future depends on how well we care for our people today.” The Gulfgate Health & Wellness Fair embodies that spirit—bringing together care, compassion, and community in a way that uplifts us all.

How to Get Involved

Mark your calendars, bring your loved ones, and take part in this free opportunity to take charge of your health. Spread the word to neighbors, church members, and coworkers—because health is not just personal, it’s collective.
