The mission of the Boston REACH Coalition is to promote health equity and eliminate racial and health inequities in Boston. REACH: Racial and Ethnic Approaches to Community Health. The 200-member coalition has met monthly for ten years. The coalition has earned an outstanding reputation in the local and public health community for its work in raising awareness of racial and ethnic health disparities, educating the public about health issues that affect the Black community in Boston, and for its credible partnerships with community members, policymakers, faith-based leaders, and academic institutions. The coalition includes community members, community groups, health care providers, business and faith leaders, and academic partners. With new funding as a Center of Excellence in the Elimination of Disparities (CEED), the coalition will expand its scope of work to address cardiovascular disease and public health issues related to men’s health, adolescent wellness, community advocacy, public policy, and environmental health. A strategic plan will ensure that community efforts to eliminate racial and ethnic health disparities can be sustained.

Streamline’s booth is located at the New England Motel field in the center of the mile-long stretch of dealer filled fields. If you are a collector and have never experienced Brimfield, you’ve missed out on the shopping experience of a lifetime!

Streamline also exhibits at Art Deco Weekend Festival in Miami. The show takes place every January on Ocean Drive in the heart of the historic Art Deco district of Miami Beach, and features antiques, Art Deco-inspired art, music and lectures. A must for the Deco lover!
