Our Health and Wellness initiatives focuses on food insecurity, along with health promotion and disease prevention, by educating communities and empowering individuals to make healthier choices. We understand that those issues greatly directly impact a child's performance in the classroom.
AIM-TN partners with MeHarry Medical College and the Matthew Walker Comprehensive Health Center by hosting the Brother Clyde A. Poag Men’s Health Conference, which focuses on the mind, body, and spirit of men in the community. Brother Poag dedicated his life to the health and well-being of people, especially African American men until his passing in 2025.
Our annual Community Health Fair is our flagship health and wellness program that embodies our commitment to building healthier communities.
Since 2013, our health fair has realized continuous growth and now encompasses 1,000 participants, 50 health partners and more than 20 corporate sponsors. With their support, we provide free medical, dental and other health related screenings, along with providing backpacks, health lifestyle information and school supplies.
AIM-TN also help stock food pantries for several Metro Nashville Public Schools, which ensures students have food to eat on weekends and during the summer months.
