Derby Day Doesn't Disappoint

Legacy supporter and hostess extraordinaire Ginger Grant presided over a festive Derby Day celebration at Rich's Houston. Live performances and our traditional Derby Day hat contest provided entertainment leading up to the Kentucky Derby Race. 

Derby Day kicks off the countdown to Mint Julep, July 16 at Rich's. This year's Mint Julep honorees are the Diana Foundation, Janie Lopez, and Bryan Hlavinka. Email events@legacycommunityhealth.org for more information.
Millennials Take Over to Talk About Preventing HIV

Houston-area HIV advocates hosted  "Let's Talk About Sex: The Millennial Takeover" to encourage open, frank  conversations about HIV and sex among the 18-35 year old age group.  Stigma, homophobia and discrimination are among the socio-economic factors affecting HIV transmission rates.
