The 2nd Annual Man Up – Chicago’s Men’s Lifestyle Expo is back, and it’s more than just an event; it’s a movement towards transforming the narrative around men’s health. Scheduled for June 8, 2024, at the Instituto del Progresso Latino Career Academy, located at 2520 S. Western Avenue, Chicago, this dynamic one-day expo is dedicated to celebrating Men’s Health Month while addressing the unique health disparities faced by Black and Brown communities. Brown and Black men often encounter disproportionate rates of hypertension, diabetes, and heart disease, compounded by barriers to accessing healthcare. Men from these communities are also experiencing prostate cancer at a much earlier age here in Chicago. The Man Up expo aims to bridge these gaps by providing accessible health screenings, wellness checkups, and educational workshops tailored to their specific needs. The Man Up -Chicago’s Men’s Lifestyle Expo will take pace on June 8th from 9a.m., to 4p.m., at Instituto de Progresso Latino Career Academy, 2520 S. Western Ave. For general information, visit www.manup-chicago.com
