Community organizations, businesses, healthcare providers, and wellness advocates are invited to participate in the newly reimagined Binational Healthy Living Festival, taking place on Saturday, October 3, 2026, from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at All Care Health Center, 902 S. 6th Street in Council Bluffs. 

The festival is in collaboration with the Mexican Consulate and celebrates Binational Health Week, a nationwide event. Binational Health Week is a health advocacy and community mobilization effort that continues to serve underserved Latino populations, while also celebrating wellness and diversity in healthcare.

This exciting community event will bring together families, residents, and organizations from across the region for a morning focused on health, wellness, culture, education, and connection. With growing community interest and strong local support, this year’s festival promises to be bigger and more impactful than ever before. 

The festival will feature: 

  • Free health screenings and wellness resources
  • Educational workshops and community information
  • Family-friendly activities and cultural presentations
  • Opportunities to connect directly with local residents and community leaders
  • And a celebration of the Latino culture that you won’t want to miss!
