The Power New York: Health & Empowerment Symposium is rapidly approaching. Get ready to be educated, empowered and engaged! Less than 4 cents of every healthcare dollar is spend on prevention and public health, although 80% of the risk factors involved in the leading causes of death are behavior-related and thus preventable. The Power New York: Health & Empowerment Symposium is intended to attack this challenge head-on by offering inspiration, information and practical tools for healthy living including an expert panel, powerful keynote speaker and workshops on healthy eating, stress management, mental health, skincare, and much more!
