"Stories from 30 Years of Sex Ed and Medical Services to Marginalized Lakeside Women", presented by Sylvia Flores of CEDEJO

Sylvia will share stories about her efforts to help women and families of the most marginalized Lakeside communities. In the 80s she created a team of leaders who worked to empower these communities. She will tell us how her institution addresses the most important problems like breast and cervical cancer, sexually transmitted diseases, unplanned pregnancy and domestic violence.
