Qualified on the content I am responsible for because: I am an MPH in Epidemiology student, focusing on Latino and immigrant health issues. Effecting Change from Grassroots Level is a public health project I co-founded in a trailer park community of mainly low-income Latinos, in Fairview, Oregon. The project consisted of offering free art classes and other public health educational activities for children and their families during the summer under the umbrella of Good News Community Health Center.
