Ms. Hernandez
- Community Health Worker
"I'm very involved in my community. Through my church, and through my work, I found about [Salud al Pasito] doing these walks and coming to my community. That's a great incentive because they're participating where we live. [Salud al Pasito] gives the people in my neighborhood access since a lot of people that live here are not able to travel. When we're here close together with our own community it's just more of a relaxed atmosphere. We realize we need to do something for ourselves to better our health and better the health of those around us. It also helps with cutting down on the money we spend on health care for ourselves and hopefully for our nation."
Dr. Jaen
- Family Physician
"[Salud al Pasito] has increased awareness of medical students of the needs of the local communities. It has brought together multiple community service organizations to make healthcare better and personally allows the opportunity to provide a complete service without an overwhelming commitment of time. [Salud al Pasito] allows the integration between clinical medicine and community service in a big way. Engaging the next generation of physicians allows for a better way of bringing them up"
Mr. Sanchez
- Walk Participant
"[Salud al Pasito] has made me think about my health because now I want to continue walking, continue it and pursue it and become healthy. Just reach out to more communities throughout the whole city. Be aware, understand how healthy you can be just by walking or exercising."
Ms. Tobias
- Walk Participant
"Ah yes, [the walk] was really exciting. When I got here I got my health screening checked and then walked around and met the volunteers. It was really nice, they gave me a lot of good information and then we took the walk. Everybody took the walk, it was really fun. One time around and a second time around. We were only going to do two, but we got encouraged by the guy that was giving the tickets, so that was really nice. It was a nice walk, and everybody here looked like they had fun. It was nice and friendly. I'm going to bring my kids next time."
