The following is a manual created by a Peace Corps Volunteer in the Dominican Republic. The book is intended to be used by community health workers (including counselors, teachers, health educators, nurses and/or doctors), those living in both rural and urban communities. The book was designed as a tool for community health workers who travel from house-to-house or location-to-location. It is intended to be used for hard-to-reach areas of the community where community members might otherwise have a difficult time reaching basic health services or information that are important to them on a preventative health basis.
