VISTAs (Volunteers In Service To America) at CFNM (Community Foundation of Northwest Mississippi) will host a healthcare enrollment/re-enrollment fair on MLK Day from 10 am to 2 pm. According to the Mississippi State Department of Health, a majority of the adults in Mississippi are overweight; approximately 225,000 adults in the state are estimated to have diabetes, heart disease, asthma; and stroke is the third leading cause of death.
