DESCRIPTION:African and African Ancestry Health and Heritage Family Day 2021\n\nFeb. 
 28, 2021 @ 11:00 AM - 2:00 PM \n\nRegistration here: 
 https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZwodOqupj0pH9BiuMqplDISwwRCGLQCo9dv\n\nThis 
 event is part of African/African Ancestry Health and Heritage Month 
 (AAAHHM) in \nSanta Clara County. The overall goal of African/African 
 Ancestry Health and Heritage month \nis to provide African/African Ancestry 
 families with appropriate resources to promote healthy habits in the 
 African/African Ancestry community. This year's theme for the month of 
 February is WAZIMA which is Swahili for ‘collective wellness.’ \n\nA 
 variety of culturally focused events will provide an opportunity for 
 families and children \nfrom 0-17 years to obtain resources which are 
 available to them in Santa Clara County through FIRST 5, the Santa Clara 
 County Departments of Public Health and Behavioral Health, the Santa Clara 
 County Executives Office as well as other organizations and 
 nonprofits.\n\nThe inception of the AAAHHM in 2016 was a response to the 
 Call to Action initiated by the African/African Ancestry Community, the 
 Black Leadership Kitchen Cabinet and various stakeholders. The purpose of 
 the Call to Action was to address long-standing racism that people of 
 African/African Ancestry continue to experience within Santa Clara County.
