Maternal health
This document summarizes maternal health issues in developing countries compared to developed countries. Maternal mortality is much higher in developing countries, where women have a 1 in 16 chance of dying during childbirth compared to 1 in 2,800 in the US. Factors that contribute include poverty, distance from care, lack of education and access to medical services. Common causes of maternal death are bleeding, infections, high blood pressure and unsafe abortions. Efforts to reduce maternal mortality through improved access to care have made progress but many issues remain. Studies also show correlations between higher economic development, wealth, maternal education and better health outcomes for mothers and children. Ethical issues arise regarding imposing cultural beliefs around topics like family planning.

Healthy Habits program overview
The document describes Oasis' Healthy Habits for Adults program, which offers classes to older adults focused on improving nutrition and increasing physical activity. The one-hour classes include nutrition lessons, exercise, and healthy snacks. They are led by volunteers and aim to help participants manage chronic conditions and live independently by eating well and staying active. A past participant said the classes helped them fight off old age and fill free time. Evaluation found 89% of participants intended to eat healthier and be more physically active after attending.
Breastfeeding In Minorities
This document discusses the benefits of breastfeeding for minorities. It notes that breastfeeding can prevent sudden infant death syndrome and reduce risks of obesity, diabetes, cancer and other chronic diseases for both mother and child. However, breastfeeding rates remain lower among minority groups due to various challenges such as inconvenience, lack of education, discomfort, and cultural norms. The document provides statistics on breastfeeding rates among different racial/ethnic groups in the US and explores some of the common reasons why minorities breastfeed less. It highlights the importance of support and education in helping more women from all backgrounds to breastfeed.
Voices of community college students.
The document outlines the many doubts, fears, and challenges faced by community college students as expressed in their own words, such as feeling that they are not smart enough or that no one will notice if they drop out. It then describes how the author themselves confronted similar questions and doubts as a community college student but learned that the first step to success is believing you are already successful. It calls for community college students to feel valued, motivated, and hopeful so they can complete their degrees and thrive rather than just get through community college.

DESCRIPTION
Institutional and social barriers place Latino families in the U.S. at greater risk for adverse health outcomes, often facing unique challenges to healthy sexuality and access to reproductive health care; the services available are often not linguistically or culturally appropriate. To help Latinos navigate the health care system and address their need for culturally relevant health information, Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin (PPWI) utilizes specially trained lay community members as frontline public health advisors. Promotores de Salud have firsthand knowledge of the issues affecting the communities in which they live and serve, and through direct education and training in homes and other familiar venues, become trusted resources. The workshop described the Promotores model and explored how community health advisors can model and teach health literacy skills in underserved communities.

Positive media influence on teenage sexual health
Teens spend a significant amount of time engaged with media like television, the internet, and social networks. This media exposure can help educate teens about relationships, sexual health issues like pregnancy and STDs. Storylines that depict the challenges of teen pregnancy and relationships can also teach valuable lessons. Media campaigns have been effective at reducing teen pregnancy rates by providing sexual health information to teens. It is important that teens have access to reliable sources of information to help them make informed choices about their health, relationships, and futures.
The Op Foundation
