Project description: The Practicum Project involved participating in the data collection process (Surveys and focus groups) of the State Health Assessment (SHA). Being able to hear different health issues directly from the community members was very eye opening. I also appreciated the opportunity to collaborate with multiple partners, which allowed the inclusion of many vulnerable and marginalized communities. I also got to collect data first hand in the field. I think that was rewarding too.
