Be Healthy Beverly

June 1-7 is National CPR and AED Awareness Week! You could be the difference for someone you know or love. Join the Nation of Lifesavers by learning CPR. Find a course at www.heart.org/nation or visit any North Shore YMCA to learn more about their CPR, Lifeguard & First Aid Certification courses.

DanversCARES invites you to a community gathering for hope, healing, and recovery. Tomorrow, May 20th, we celebrate Light the Night Purple! This is an FREE, inclusive event designed to raise awareness about substance use prevention and treatment while challenging the stigma surrounding recovery. The event starts at 6:30pm and complimentary t-shirts will be available while supplies last.

Join us as we celebrate recovery out loud and support our community. We hope to see you all there! 💜
