What I Do Here: I am the Latino Peer
Educator for NH REACH 2010 Initiative.
As a Peer Educator I enjoy going
into people homes and teaching them about Diabetes and Hypertension
which are two of the most common chronic diseases affecting the Latino
Community.
Throughout my visits, I have found out that there is a need in the
community about learning about these diseases and the people are very
eager to learn
and start applying what they are being taught so they may achieve better
health.
I began my work with this organization as a part-time with
the program "Woman to Woman." I work here because our organization
cares and
advocates for minorities. I have to take advantage of this opportunity
to do what I enjoy the most which is to work and help my Latino Community. |
