摘要

This quality improvement project used a Community Health Worker model and tailored environmental health information to deliver a 4-week program with the intention of improving environmental health literacy to a group of Latina women in a group setting. A mixed methods approach showed meaningful themes emerging amongst the groups, including a sense of empowerment and overall concern for the environment, as well as a sense of community amongst them. Surveys supported an overall positive impact on their knowledge, attitudes, beliefs, and actions. Projects like these may help empower the Latina community and create a greater sense of belonging while improving overall health.
