benefits of early
intervention to the
multicultural communities.
Saturday, June 7 from 10 AM to 2 PM at the Health
Department’s Lantana Health
Center, 1250 Southwinds
Drive, the first of the
three fairs will be
conducted. During this
event, one of the focuses
will be Autism and the
importance of early
