9 Focus Groups Participants 54% of responding mothers were born abroad 61% were from Mexico 55% Spoke only Spanish 14% Spoke only English 31% Spoke both languages 9
10 What We Learned from our Focus Groups The Health Care System Participants reported unjust treatment with Health Care personnel Health Care Workers believed they understood Latino community but used subtle words such as calling Latino group them/us 10
11 What We Learned from our Focus Groups Culture and Identity Food was central to defining culture Family gatherings Participants agreed that people are connected to their country of origin strong for new immigrants but remained a value of 2nd and 3rd generation participants La familia as a significant strength even if not blood 11
12 What We Learned from our Focus Groups Culture and Identity, cont. Participants reported loss of language meant loss of culture Participants identified generosity, loyalty, and respect as strengths in their culture. Communication skills between parents and children a problem 12
13 What We Learned from our Focus Groups Community and Work Reasons for not breastfeeding Unsupportive immediate family members School/Work Felt that formula was pushed on them from every direction 13

23 3. One Solution: Latino Best Start Curriculum
24 Latino Best Start Rationale Latino Best Start Grounded in values Based on the premise that WE can create the change we need Designed to create champions in neighborhoods to promote the healthily lifestyles beginning at breastfeeding Culturally relevant Flexible Designed to be highly participatory Teaching participants how to discover and develop leadership skills, they not only change themselves and their families, but their communities 24
25 LBS LESSON TOPICS Values A Healthy Start, A Healthy Life Leadership Advocacy Making Things Happen Developing a Plan Part 1 & 2 25
26 LBS ACTIVITY EXAMPLE #1 LOTERÍA 26
27 LBS ACTIVITY EXAMPLE #2 DEVELOPING Planning a Quinceañera A PLAN Or any other scenario that fits your community. The point here is to have the groups practice making a plan. It could be creating a soccer team and planning for the first game, or anything relevant to your community. At this point, go through the quinceañera plan. Ask people to answer each question and facilitate a large group discussion. Why? To celebrate our daughter s 15 years of life with our family and friends. What? To host a celebration for 300 family members on my daughter s birthday. How? Choose a date, make an invitation list, set a budget, send out invitations, arrange for food, reserve a location, select music, buy the dress, select the court, select a church for the reception, order a cake, attend the quinceañeras, clean up. Who? Immediate family, tíos, tías, friends By when? Each step will need a date assigned to it. How will we know that we have succeeded? These are the clues that tell us we have arrived at our goal. We want to know that we are successful when we implement our plans. What clues would you look for to see that the 27
