HEALTH
EDUCATION & COMMUNITY OUTREACH
SIPA’s Health Education and Community Outreach programs provide vital information to improve the quality of life for youth and families. Major outreach initiatives include:
The Tobacco Action Project SIPA (TAPS) strives to create smoke-free campuses at local community colleges and smoke-free apartment buildings in Historic Filipinotown.
The Telecommunications Consumer Campaign is designed in particular for those with minimal English-speaking skills and the elderly. By going door-to-door and holding workshops, program staff provide vital information to individuals about their rights regarding cell phone, internet and calling-card bills and regulations.
Youth Health Workshops are conducted at SIPA to empower youth by giving them the knowledge they need to make wise choices and lead productive lives. Workshops focus on prevention-education subjects such as alcohol, tobacco, substance abuse and teen pregnancy.
