I want to express my sincere gratitude to you regarding the Camino Magico pamphlets. I just received the delivery of 1,000 pamphlets – 500 more than I originally requested from you. This is a tremendous donation for Yonkers Family Day, considering 95% of the attendance is Latino. All of your pamphlets were distributed at last year’s event. What a great resource to once again distribute to the families. Thanks again!

Hi - we were forwarded info about the pamphlet you've prepared for the Latino community, and I was wondering how much they cost? We work with various immigrant groups, including Latinos, and this looks like it could be a good resource for the nutrition educators to have. It's important information in a really nice format. Glad to have the website resource available. Thanks for the good work.

What a beautiful brochure! I am a dietitian in Chicago and work with a large number of Spanish speaking patients at an outpatient public facility. I am always looking for nice Spanish language information, and this brochure is great. Can I please order (free) copies for my clinic? I would really appreciate it. Please contact me if you need any additional information.
Thank you so much!

I found out about your organization through my Tufts University Health and Nutrition newsletter. I am involved with Collin County Adult Clinic in Plano, TX. It is an all volunteer health clinic for the uninsured in our county and serves a large Hispanic population. Your coalition is just the information I need to reach those we serve. We have the same philosophy about fast food vs fresh food! ... As a Diabetes Educator this information is invaluable. Thank you for what you do.

The pamphlets arrived today and look fantastic! Thank you for arranging this, it is very good timing with our Hispanic Festival coming
up on Sat and Sun. I have also already passed some on to our WIC office
and plan to take some to our local supermarkets that tend to be used by
Spanish speaking folks.
Thanks again!

I am a nurse practitioner/physician assistant and I work with adolescents. I am seeing lots of kids that have BMIs from 36-44, mostly Latinos. The information in "Camino Magico" is very good and I am sharing it with my obese Latino youth. Thank you!!!!!!!!!

I was given a few copies of camino Magico which I have incorporated into provider trainings with our CHDP program which serves primarily (high 90th %tile) low income Latino children. They look to be a great counseling tool and an aid for parents of children with obesity concerns. Thank you for your attention.

I work with our Fresh From the Farm program where we go into various Chicago Public Schools and implement curriculum, provide teacher trainings, parent education nights, reform school lunches and help build the school's wellness policy. The majority of the students we serve are of Latino heritage and for most of them English is their second language. We are always looking for tools for outreach especially for our Parent Education Nights. We came across your site and absolutely love the Camino Magico! My co-worker is a dietitian as well and especially loved it!
