It is my understanding that there is a silent HIV/AIDS epidemic, and therefore I feel like there needs to be more awareness. There are also too many "babies" having babies, and this will continue to make it a greater challenge for especially poor people to climg the socio-economic ladder.	NPU 7
1. Women's Issues...providing education on and support for women's medical issues goes directly to the heart of the most medically underserved community, and has the greatest benefit per dollar spent. The medical issues of women affect the primary caretakers, primary parent, least paid and most encumbered person in our communities. / 2. Nutrition. Good nutrition is a vital and missing component of preventative care in our community. By providing it early, and teaching it at a layperson level, we can attack diabetes, atherosclerosis, stroke and so many other disorders before they begin. / 3. Obesity is again, something which educating about, dealing with, and focusing on, provided a great deal of value-added impacts to adjacent and related illnesses.	NPU 7

Nutrition, Diabetes & women's health are interrelated. Women predominantly control food selection for their households& influence lifelong eating patterns in their children. Those eating patterns determine overall health & weight. Overweight then begins a cascade of issues, including diabetes.	NPU 7
