Research and Community Work


Yesterday, August 10,2010 is when I met with my researcher again and did my community work for SNNA. Long day, but it was a great learning experience for me. Putu and I went to meet up with Researcher Dr. Prochalk at CSUDH where we had alot to learn about our research project. We worked side by side on how we are going to get the information on our project together. We talked alot about the different culture aspect in health. We watched videos that could explained more of what were looking for in our community focused group. I was so excited on the research project we got assigned to, but it'll take alot of effort into putting everything together.

We finished our work with Dr.Prochalk that day, but had an hour to meet up with Genesis who is from SNNA to do the cervical and Breast cancer workshop. We had to get 5 girls for this workshop to make it happen and had time to bring along with us our friends from high school, Pookie and Leka with us to the workshop. This was really a great workshop for all of us because we had no clue about these cancers, but that we had family members that had one of the cancer like, Breast Cancer. Genesis, who was conducting the workshop taught us how to be aware of these type of cancer. We ended the day on a good note that we can teach and share the information about the cervical and breast cancer.

Friday was a real busy day. We had alot of great speakers who helped us understand and know what to do with our research.
