GET RSS FEEDHEARMe (Health Education via Airwaves for Refugees)
East African refugees – now New Americans – and their Atlanta neighbors will collaborate to create on-air, on-line, and on-stage productions promoting health and cultural competency in their community. HEARMe, or Health Education via Airwaves for Refugees, melds African storytelling with American dramedy: listeners learn from the struggles and triumphs of realistic characters, written and voiced by community members in their own languages, as they work to become healthy, integrated members of their metro Atlanta community.
