I’m very happy to announce that I finally managed to touch base with my organization, COLOR Latina. I was contacted via email by the Program Coordinator, Mimi Madrid; I will be working with her and the Community Organizer, Jenny Santos. I haven’t had the chance to meet with Mimi or Jenny in person, yet, but I’m looking forward to doing it very soon.
As Mimi mentioned in her email, me and my fellow students are to help out with the Crushing HIV event and Spreading La Voz: Women, Girls and Native HIV/AIDS Awareness Month; furthermore, this event is in collaboration with other community organizations including Cafe Cultura. I’m very excited to be a part of this organization, and looking forward to the experience of collaborating with such great Latina organizations in the Denver area.
Glad you got in touch, Izzy. Look forward to hearing more!
