These programs are designed to focus on some of the most prevalent diseases in the New Orleans community, such as diabetes, heart disease and cancer. These programs address prevention, early detection, treatment and maintaining healthy lifestyles. In 2011, Touro participated in 203 outreach events that were attended by 3,037 people.
