The Orange County Department on Aging and the Project EngAGE Mental Wellness and Intergenerational Senior Resource Teams invite the public to attend a community event, Meditation with a Cop, on May 23.

Join the Chapel Hill Police Department, Orange County Sheriff’s Office, ProMedica and UNC Health/Triangle Falls Prevention Coalition to celebrate Mental Health Month!
