About
Through a multidepartmental effort, the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center El Paso Paul L. Foster School of Medicine has created the El Paso Health Education and Awareness Team, EP-HEAT, and is currently offering bilingual SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19 virtual Health Education Fairs for the community of El Paso.
EP-HEAT Goals
“Is a team of promotoras, faculty and students dedicated to educate and inform the community about important health topics, Like Covid-19, Covid-19 vaccinations, Diabetes and others. Now we are proud to be part of a partnership with Microsoft and LinkedIn to teach the community how to complete free LinkedIn pathways that will help them in future jobs.”
Care Packages for Families Fund
TTUHSC EP-HEAT has presented bilingual COVID-19 health education fairs to almost 1,500 members of our El Paso community. Our next goal is to create bilingual COVID-19 care packages for El Pasoans who do not have readily available access to internet and computers. The TTUHSC EP-HEAT care packages will contain bilingual COVID-19 booklets for adults, bilingual COVID-19 children's activity books, hand sanitizer, and masks.
