Team LA: Day 5 and Day 6

Day 5
Today we went to tour Kaiser Permanente Teen Clinic, and Health Education Center. We received information about healthy living, nutrition, and health curriculum offered for pediatric patients, teens, and adults. We spoke with a diversity counselor about how services are offered to doctors to ethically, and culturally interact/serve a diverse group of patients. We also talked with a teen health educator that shared the differences between adolescent medicine and adult medicine. We talked with health education supervisor about "how" health education services are offered to students at local elementary schools.

After we volunteered at Reading Partners. We had the opportunity to reach out to three different elementary schools and help students during their after school reading  program. We read with students in the third, fourth, and fifth grade. The schools that we volunteered were all title I schools.

After we had our family dinner. It was so much FUN! we had the chance to meet everyones friends and family. We then had our reflection with our friends and families and shared our Spring Break Experience.

Day 6
It was a long drive back to Eugene but we made it! Team LA impacted more than 500+ youth. We toured amazing organizations, and had an outstanding experiential learning journey. Our team started as a group of motivated individuals of diverse backgrounds and by the end of the week became a close knit of friends!
