1. What do you do?
As a Peace Corps volunteer, my job is based on the needs of my village. My work thus far has centered on improving maternal and newborn health. I help with prenatal consultations and vaccinations at the health center and teach topics like malaria and nutrition at my women's group or the villagers' homes. Outside of health work, I have set up a couple of community gardens and host an English club for middle school students.
