Description: | The Cuban and Latin American Health Initiative is an extension of the Faith and Community Wellness Initiative. It is based on the premise that housing and delivery of health services in underdeveloped neighborhoods in the United States and those in the Caribbean and Latin America are similar. Therefore, multistate studies, including the United States, of these problems can produce knowledge that is useful to the various countries regardless of the socioeconomic system and stage of development. The Center for Urban Studies has been working with the Cuban Health and Housing Center to create a multistate team to develop a joint proposal and pursue funding for such a project. |
