[Health_Education_Promotion] American Winter Film Screening: next Thursday, May 1st

[Alissa Leavitt (Green)]

Dear Section Members:



Questions about poverty, income inequality, and social justice intersect
with our work as health educators and promoters. The film *American
Winter*provides an immediate, local learning opportunity.



The documentary follows eight Portland-area families living through the
“Great Recession” during the winter of 2012. The work of Emmy-winning
filmmakers Joe and Harry Gantz (HBO’s “Taxicab Confessions,” “The
Defenders”), *American Winter* has aired on HBO and toured the festival
circuit.



Check out the trailer: *http://youtu.be/wJJR3lG72AA

Thanks to the generous support of Portland Community College, the film is
coming to the Rock Creek campus. It will be shown at 4pm on Thursday, May
1st in the Event Center.

Please come. It's a serious film, followed by a panel discussion, including
speakers from Communication Across Borders, Partners for a Hunger-Free
Oregon, the Oregon Child Development Coalition, Oregon Women, Infants and
Children Program, and Worksystems, Inc.



 I’m attaching a flyer, please share widely. The event is free of charge
and open to the public.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me:
