Improve the Quality of Life for people with HIV

“You have HIV” is not a diagnosis anyone wants to hear, and the road is more difficult for people in poverty.  This ProWorld program offers support and guidance on the care of people with HIV.  You can walk with patients through this process by interning to help:

  • Give guidance on lifestyle modifications for clients living with HIV / AIDS
  • Fundraising activities for HIV patients.
  • Daily newspaper of preventive information in cultural-social events, and maintenance to support groups
  • Develop lectures, workshops, and activities of prevention in schools or communities on the outsides of the city.
  • Nursing and helping doctors with visits.
  • Redesign the organization’s website
  • Administrative work in the office.
  • Strategically network and communicate with other agencies in Oaxaca
  • Support with social work with the psychologist of the clinic or in other areas such as nutrition, pharmacy, dermatology, and infectology.

People with experience in dentistry, nutrition and psychology are especially encouraged to apply. Bring your compassion and your Spanish skills and join us as we walk through dark valleys with our friends in Oaxaca.
