Employees at the Stop
& Shop Distribution Center in Assonet, where many Fall River
Area people work, held its tenth annual Health, Wellness, Safety and
Fitness Fair on October 13, 2016. Over 700 of its associates cycle
through the event that runs from 6:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. to permit all
three shifts to participate. "We provide an opportunity for our
associates to have a little fun, get educated on health and wellness,
get some testing done, and understand what the community has to offer in
the way of services," stated Human Resources Manager Eva Cabral
who, along with Jean Limerick and Roger Beliveau organize the event with
the help of Rachael Sirois and Bob Horne at the United
Way of Greater Fall River. Participating organizations include the Boys
and Girls Club, Family Service
Association, HealthFirst
Family Care Center, the Women's
Center, Learn2Cope,
Southcoast Health, and Stanley
