Description

With the help of JMU Libraries, JMU’s Special Collections, local community partners and JMU’s Community Service-Learning Center, students produced and reflected on a Podcast in Spanish about a health issue impacting the Harrisonburg-Rockingham Latino community. Students addressed a topic researched in SPAN 365 (access problems, Latinas health, mental health, nutrition and diet, and future health challenges) by interviewing Spanish-speaking people in Harrisonburg and Rockingham county about their experiences in that topic.
