Our internet survey is related to women’s health studying how different ethnic groups and socioeconomic classes view physical activity. We are especially in need of participation from Asian Americans and low-income Asian-Americans.
Dr. Eun-Ok Im’s work involves conducting an Internet study on the attitudes toward physical activity among diverse ethnic groups of middle-aged women (40-60 Y/O). All women will benefit from participating in this study and with more participation we will be able to make our data more complete.

Step up and walk with the AACI team to support our HIV program and the fight against HIV/AIDS at the 2009 Walk for AIDS Silicon Valley!

The walk will take place Sunday, October 18th from 10am – 12pm in San Jose.

It’s FREE to walk, but please help us raise money if you can! Every dollar counts.

We are walking to raise funds for AACI’s HIV program, one of only two non-clinical HIV testing sites in the county and the only program targeting the Asian American community.  With the current state budget elimination of HIV education/prevention funding, the program needs support now more than ever.

TO REGISTER:

1.    Sign up at our AACI team website: http://tiny.cc/AACI_AIDSwalk

2.    Choose Asian Americans for Community Involvement under AGENCY DESIGNATION (100% of the funds you raise will be donated directly to the AACI HIV Program.  If AACI is not designated, funds will be divided among the nine benefitting agencies.)

REGISTRATION IS FREE!  THE FIRST 50 ONLINE REGISTERED WALKERS WILL RECEIVE A FREE API AIDS AWARENESS T-SHIRT.

If you have any questions or would like more details, please contact:

Mark Molina at 408.975.2730 x 183 or Sedora Tantraphol at 408.975.2730 x 114.

Produced by San Francisco’s Shadowlight Productions, Ghosts of the River shares the untold stories of both sides of the divide.

This will be a bilingual play with Spanish/English translation provided through subtitles. Special events include a free performance on October 4, a student matinees and post show talkbacks with the director, visit our website for more details
