CHEVERE* (Community Health Volunteer Educational Reader)

Four times a year, PC Peru's Community Health Program puts out a newsletter. It's exactly what it sounds like — a hodge-podge of success and horror stories about working with health in Peru. This time around, the powers that be chose me to help put it together with one other volunteer (shout-out Stacey!).

As much as I love judging condom relays, it was nice to take a break and had a great time cramped in a hotel room over my mac, redesigning the newsletter and editing stories with Stacey. It was the first time in 9 months I'd been able to do something truly journalism-y, and, I don't know, it just felt good to be in my element. I wish I could post the whole issue, but I'm afraid of any bureaucratic repercussions. :-/ But I'm pretty sure it's safe to post the cover.
