Community Health and Education Initiatives
We continue to provide communicable disease awareness to more than 100 community members. We had various discussions on issues relating to Education, Financial management, Health awareness, and child safety. An after-school program has been set up by a sister organization of which school-going children in the neighborhood can be assisted on doing their homework and other educational-related exercises. Also, the classroom is used for Adult literacy programs. More than 10 or more Adults use this facility to study basic computer skills, send e-mails, and surf the web. Through the help of our volunteers, we screened more than 50 elders on Blood pressure, Blood sugar, and other health-related illnesses. We organized more than 24 seminars/meetings on which issues affecting the community were discussed. Examples, neighborhood safety, housing, immigration, Credit Unions, and their related costs to name a few. We also provided an avenue for cultural practices..For example, African/Caribbean dance, child modeling, and many more. Adult computer literacy is ongoing. Seminars and workshops are ongoing areas not limited to Ebola awareness, human rights, literacy reading, culture, and many more. In addition to the above, the coming of Covid 19 became a very important issue of discussion. while most activities were paused, we continue to communicate through zoom and telephone.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesDec 1, 2023 – Nov 30, 2024Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$0Community Facility Usage
