[Health_Education_Promotion] Off to India: Section Update

[Adrienne P MULLOCK]

Namaste!
 
In case you didn't know, today is my last day working in the states. I have been granted a leave of absence to pursue the journey of my dreams: to India. I will be out of the country for the next six months - traveling, studying and exploring. 
 
In my absence, Loralee Trocio will be the new section Chair, assisted by Vice Chair Sarah Tinker. 
Loralee's email address is ljtrocio at yahoo.com. Please include her on any emails you would like her to be sharing with the section. 
 
If you are interested in reading about my public health adventures while abroad, there is a link to my public health blog on OPHA's new website:

While at this year's OPHA annual conference, I had the pleasure of meeting Tara Melinkovich, the Outreach and Training Design Specialist with the Northwest Center for Public Health Practice. Tara is interested in hearing from you regarding the types of training you feel are lacking. Please send your thoughts and ideas to her at: taramel at uw.edu. For more information you can also visit their website:

What else? The powerpoint from our section meeting is attached. In there you will find two ice-breaker ideas and links to the new eLearning modules I helped to develop for the WIC program. These online modules, focusing on Participant Centered Education will be living on DHS Learning Center within the next couple of weeks. https://dhslearn.hr.state.or.us

Wishing you and our section all the best.
Namaste,
