100 Black Men of Chicago focuses on health and wellness of African Americans through collaborative relationships and alliances with local health professionals and hospitals. We focus our attention on awareness, education, and early detection of disease that disproportionately impact African American men and women. These include such conditions as heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, and cancers such as prostate, colorectal, breast and cervical.
The activities of our Health & Wellness committee have included participation in the Annual Men’s Health & Wellness at Provident Hospital of Cook County, Prostate Awareness with Loretto Hospital, Health Screenings sponsored by State Farm, and others.
Our youths are exposed to a variety health issues in their community; therefore, we will help them make healthy decisions through our health and wellness modules which are incorporated into the mentoring curriculum, and field trips to a variety of healthcare settings in the Chicago metropolitan and surrounding area.
