The Town of Miami Lakes held a meeting on July 9, 2025, focusing on community health education and engagement initiatives. The discussion centered around the continuation of educational lectures provided by Mount Sinai, which have been well-received by residents.

The meeting began with a proposal to continue the partnership with Mount Sinai for their health lectures. Participants expressed strong support for the program, highlighting its educational value and the expertise of the surgeons involved. One member emphasized the importance of these lectures, stating, "How can we look a gift horse in the mouth as far as a top-notch surgeon from Mount Sinai coming and discussing a particular major organ?"

In addition to the Mount Sinai lectures, attendees discussed the possibility of organizing seminars specifically for seniors. Suggestions included hosting sessions on topics such as wills and estate planning, which had been requested by community members. It was noted that previous seminars had not fully met the needs of the audience, particularly regarding the focus on special needs topics.

The conversation also touched on the need for improved advertising to boost attendance at these events. Members agreed that better promotion could enhance community participation and engagement in future lectures and seminars.

Overall, the meeting underscored the Town's commitment to providing valuable health education resources to its residents, particularly seniors, and the importance of community feedback in shaping these initiatives. Further steps will be taken to explore additional topics and improve outreach efforts for upcoming events.
