Free Event Offers Health Screenings, Expert Speakers, and Lifesaving Resources for Men and Families
MEMPHIS, Tenn. - Floridant -- Memphis, Tennessee—Men's Health Network (MHN), a national nonprofit dedicated to improving the health and well-being of men, boys, and their families, invites all Memphis-area residents to attend the 2025 Men's Health Summit on Saturday, June 7, 2025, from 10AM to 2PM at Oak Grove M.B. Church, located at 7289 Highway 64, Memphis, TN 38133.
"For over twenty years MHN has been working in Memphis to narrow the lifespan gap between men and women," said Mike Leventhal, TN Executive Director of MHN.
This annual event marks the kickoff to Men's Health Month in June and serves as a powerful platform to address the often-overlooked health needs of men and boys in the community. The event is free and open to the public.
"To kick start Men's Health Month, MHN is pleased to co-host this annual special event that will shine a light on sensitive health topics that are far too often ignored by men. I strongly urge all men to join us, to hear from our expert speakers and panelists, and most importantly, to get that free PSA test, which can truly be a lifesaver. As always, early detection is the key," said Mike Leventhal, TN Executive Director of MHN.

Highlights for This Year's 2025 Men's Health Summit Includes:
Minority men are disproportionately affected by chronic diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, and certain cancers—and are less likely to have regular access to preventive care. For example, Black men are 30% more likely to die from heart disease than non-Hispanic white men yet face significant barriers to routine health screenings and early intervention. This makes community-based events like the Men's Health Summit essential in closing care gaps and connecting underserved populations with the resources they need.
