Speaker's Bureau

The Speaker’s Bureau is one of our most popular services. Representatives from the health center will speak to community groups, classes, or organizations on women’s health and reproductive issues and the services offered by the health center.

"I really loved the speakers from Women’s Health Specialists. They were informative and gave me so much information about my body that I didn’t know about.”
