Thank you Hinds Community College for having UMMC Express Personal Health to be a vendor and having our Outreach Specialist/PrEP Navigator apart of the panel discussion for this noteworthy occassion.

The Men's Health and Wellness Symposium hosted through a collaboration between Hinds CC Single Stop, Mental Health Services, and Housing & Residence was a great success last week on the Raymond Campus!

Male students were able to receive wellness checks, mental health services, and attend a panel made up of their peers and experts.

Thank you to the panelist for providing a safe space for the young men of Hinds CC to ask questions!
