Our project was titled: “Increasing Heart Health Literacy Among Latinx Residents of South Park: Promoting Spanish-language Community Health Education Using a Culturally Relevant Pamphlet.” During the Fall quarter of 2019 we collaborated with Xóchitl Garcia, Program Coordinator of Villa Comunitaria, to develop a community-driven health education model to increase heart health literacy among Latinx residents of South Park by promoting Spanish-language community health education through a culturally-relevant pamphlet.
