It’s incredible to see how many leading Chicago organizations have stepped up to join, and the list of partners continues to grow by the day. Thanks to their support, this event is more than educational; it’s action-driven, with practical tools that help individuals and families take charge of chronic disease prevention and management,” said Yeaseul Park, CEO and Co-Founder of Orange Biomed. “Our mission is to mobilize communities with real resources and connections, not just in Chicago, but across the country. The strong response to this flagship forum reflects the power and potential of the M.A.P. Your Health movement.”

The expanded agenda includes health screenings and other essential sessions to help participants start mapping their health data right away. By strengthening collaborations across healthcare, food access, and insurance, M.A.P. Your Health is building a more inclusive and actionable approach to chronic disease prevention. “This isn’t just about awareness, it’s about equipping people with the tools, connections, and support they need to take control of their health,“ Park continued. The movement continues to grow with local leaders like the Illinois Public Health Institute, a statewide leader in health policy and community wellness, hosting sessions at the event.

The full schedule features Q&A sessions with healthcare experts, yoga and track walking, and all-day health screenings. Attendees can explore interactive resource tables offering practical tools, giveaways, and expert advice, along with healthy food tastings, raffles, and wellness demos.
