Nosotras Vivremos: Los Consejos: Un Manual de Capacitacion Para Trabajar Con Madres Latinas Campesinas

Author: National Coalition of Advocates for Students
Date Published: 2001


This manual, also available in English, provides training in communicating HIV/AIDS prevention information. Farmworkers are at a high risk of HIV/AIDS. Studies have shown that their knowledge of HIV/AIDS is low, that they engage in behaviors that put them at risk, and that they may not be willing or able to protect themselves from these risks. As heterosexually transmitted HIV continues its growth in the female population, young Latina migrant farmworkers face a much higher risk of HIV infection than do their counterparts. These training manuals will help farmworker women develop communication skills to pass HIV/AIDS prevention information on to their peers, family, and communities. The Nosotros Vivremos curriculum consists of two (parallel) training manuals: one addresses the issues and concerns of farmworker mothers/mentors and the other addresses the issues of pre-adolescent and adolescent farmworker girls.
