We guarantee participants access to quality health services at the appropriate place and time in an environment that is safe. Our main objective is to address the barriers that the health system presents to the most vulnerable populations of Comerío. We coordinate appointments with the different medical plans to verify eligibility, appointments with specialists and generalists taking into consideration the needs of each participant. Also we have a medical support team. We break down the barriers that each participant faces when receiving health services. Among other health access services, we support participants in sending documents, communicating with the provider,arranging transportation, among other health access services.

Seeds of Hope

SDE_Cleat-removebg-preview.png

Seeds of Hope is a project that seeks to support survivors of domestic violence and secondary victims. We have the support of a Legal Advocate who accompanies the survivors of domestic violence to the Comerío court.

Additionally, through psychological therapy, mentoring, art therapy and creative writing workshops, we integrate the children (secondary victims) of the survivors in healing processes and provide them emotional support.

La Ruta is a cultural project that invites us to learn about the life of Juana Colón, the history of Comerío and its gastronomy. Relive through a guided tour, the route that Juana took as a fighter for the rights of tobacco workers in the early 20th century, demonstrating her courage and commitment to social justice. You will also learn about her work as a village healer, where she provided her services free of charge, showing her support to the community. Join us!
