We’re excited for the events we have going on this month!

We’re welcoming back some community favorites, including Bingocize, while also bringing you workshops and conversations focused on supporting your health and well-being.

Whether you’re joining us to get moving, learn, or simply spend time in community, we hope you’ll find something this month that speaks to you.

This month is also extra special because AARTH is celebrating 24 years of serving our community! We’ll be celebrating this milestone at our Annual Health & Wellness Fair on September 19.

Bring your friends and family and come celebrate with us! Enjoy food, music, line dancing, health and wellness resources, raffles, community connections, and more.

We look forward to see you there!

Wildfire smoke is impacting air quality across the Seattle area. Even if you don't notice it right away, breathing smoky air can affect your health. Older adults, children, and people living with asthma, heart disease, COPD, or other respiratory conditions are especially vulnerable, but everyone should take precautions when air quality worsens.

As smoke levels rise, protect yourself and your loved ones by:
- Staying indoors as much as possible and keeping windows and doors closed.
- Using an air conditioner or HEPA air filter if available to improve indoor air quality.
- Wearing an N95 mask if you must be outdoors.
- Drinking plenty of water and avoiding strenuous outdoor activities.
- Checking local air quality before making plans outside.

If you begin experiencing symptoms such as coughing, burning eyes, headaches, wheezing, dizziness, or a sore throat, move to cleaner indoor air and monitor how you're feeling. Seek emergency medical care immediately if you or someone else experiences chest pain or difficulty breathing.

Community care is just as important during wildfire season. Check in on older family members, neighbors, and friends who may need extra support staying cool and breathing clean air.

For current air quality conditions and additional wildfire smoke safety resources, visit the links in this post or trusted local public health resources.

Stay informed, stay prepared, and stay safe. 💙
