Family Asthma Night at Lowell School: 9/21 6-8PM

Bergen County and Teaneck's Lowell Elementary School are sponsoring a free Family Asthma Night for adults and children ages 5 - 12. Bergen County residents are invited to learn more about childhood asthma at this free program on Thursday, September 22nd from 6:00 - 8:00 PM at the Lowell School, located at 1025 Lincoln Place in Teaneck.

Family Asthma Night is an opportunity for families to learn more about how to manage asthma. The adults listen to a presentation from a licensed Medical Asthma Specialist who addresses a variety of issues about asthma. Plenty of time is always allowed for questions.

At the same time, the children enjoy an educational and fun Kids on the Block, Inc. Puppet Show. The show is followed by a lively discussion period led by a Registered Respiratory Therapist. At the conclusion of the evening, the adults receive a resource packet and the children are given a goodie bag to take home.

Refreshments and snacks will be served. Pre-registration is required and seating is limited. To register, please call Ellen Keane, R.N. School Nurse at 201-833-5553 or call the County of Bergen Asthma Initiative at 201-634-2705.
