Hiv & sexual health - our program engages with latino communities in Oregon to help identify and implement community-driven solutions that address the impact of hiv in our families and communities. Weve trained community health workers and volunteers from latino cbos with our sexual health curriculum, me cuido, te cuido, to teach in their own community classes, or talleres. Our program maintains ongoing communications with facilitators to update them on new or changed information for sexual health resources. We recognize that community participation is essential in formulating a more effective strategy to combat hiv/aids in Oregon. Long-term community engagement will be critical in sustaining the involvement of communities in any type of decision-making or activities.
Food equity & health education our food equity curriculum is called abuela, mama y yo (amy). Through amy, we train-the-trainers and then they lead community classes that are six sessions. They address healthy eating, traditional values and food, accessing healthy foods and advocacy to change food policies that impact health disparities for latinos. Familias En accin works to educate and empower latino families by providing classes available in spanish on chronic disease management, exercise, and nutrition. Our food equity program has also created a community council to contribute to systems change work around accessing nutritious food. We train council members on current health issues and foster their leadership, advocacy and public policy skills to help them advocate for themselves and their communities.
