The Pinellas County Department of Health and Human Services' Mobile Medical Unit spent the day at Rock of Jesus Church in St. Petersburg on Saturday conducting physicals as part of Still Standing's first Social Services Expo. Health care, legal and social service providers gave information to attendees about housing, wellness, legal and employment issues and services that may be available to them. Free back-to-school physicals were given and adults received free medical screenings. A schedule of the Mobile Medical Units appears at right.
