First ever Feel Good Fair

The Town of Dartmouth, in conjunction with the town of Westport and Southcoast Public Health Collaborative, is hosting the first ever Feel Good Fair on Saturday, June 6. 

The fair will take place from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at UMass Dartmouth. The event, which is free to attend, welcomes families of all ages. 

Throughout the day there will be a mental health and wellness fair featuring a number of local organizations, as well as a petting zoo. There will be a yoga session at 11 a.m. and from 12 p.m. to 12:30 p.m. there will be speakers from Sunflowers for Sallie and High Point Treatment Center. 

The event is being funded by Opioid Settlement Funding from the Massachusetts Attorney General's Office, which was given to hold companies accountable for their role in the opioid crisis. Dartmouth is expected to receive $2.1 million and Westport is expected to receive $1 million. The event is meant to encourage education, awareness and community well-being.
