Community is at the heart of what we do at Versiti. That’s why we’re inviting you to have “A Seat at the Table” and ask us anything in our series of virtual community chats. Join our spring 2022 educational webinar series to listen and learn from local healthy-living experts and share your own views on food, fitness and other health topics.
In this three-part online discussion series (May 4, May 11 and May 18), a virtual stage will be set to offer education, resources and opportunities to live a healthy lifestyle as a blood donor and registered organ and tissue donor.
All events are free an open to the public.
