💜 Volunteers needed: help translate community health resources to improve health outcomes in Clarkston.

Refugee children in Clarkston are experiencing iron deficiency anemia at rates 5x the national average — 24.5% of toddlers seen at Ethne Health Clinic, compared to 4.7% nationally. Through our Healthy Beginnings program, Afghan, Burmese, and Congolese mothers worked directly with RWN, Emory, and Ethne Health to co-create nutrition videos and a cookbook built around the foods their families already cook and love. Now we need help making these resources accessible in the languages families actually speak at home. We’re currently looking for volunteers to translate into Swahili — and we have need for Dari and Burmese as well later in the project. This is a great opportunity for students or anyone passionate about community-led public health — real translation work that goes straight into the hands of mothers and Community Health Workers. Know Swahili, Dari, or Burmese? Or know someone who does?
