Mary's Center 2011-2012 Recap:

This team had the opportunity to serve through Mary’s Center, a federally qualified health center with locations in Wards 1, 2, and 4. This team’s project was crafted around the need for targeted health messaging in Mary’s Center’s multiple waiting rooms. To maximize reach with limited resources, the team employed edutainment principles and focused on creating engaging, informative, medically accurate, and culturally appropriate videos. The team also chose video content that would be easy to absorb by viewers of varying health literacy levels. The final product is a combination of sourced health education videos from high-quality sources like Unicef and health tips from Mary’s Center providers. Next steps at this site will include evaluating the impact of these videos and adding to the series as needed.
