Binational Health Week 2009 - October 3rd-17th!!
Binational Health Week (BHW) is an annual week-long series of
health-promotion and health-education activities geared toward the most
vulnerable and difficult to reach migrants and immigrants from Mexico
and Central America, but benefits underserved Latinos regardless of
their national origin and their communities of origin. Outside of Santa
Cruz County, this year, BHW will take place October 3-17, 2009 in 40
states in the U.S. and 3 provinces in Canada, with the participation of
the consular networks of the seven participating countries.
Also, the Mexican states with high rates of migration will be
implementing activities. During Binational Health Week, a national
campaign will take place to promote awareness among the Latino
community on the topics of prevention of addictions, nutrition,
prevention of strokes, and living green.
