One of the more innovative projects is run jointly by the St. Paul Schools New Americans Program and the Ramsey County Public Health Department. This program is developing a Youth Service Corps that involves youth from families that are recent immigrants or refugees. After working with adults in the health and human services fields. participating youth are sharing their knowledge with other youth from their own cultural background. I met with students from this program earlier this year. students who are learning about health care and exploring health professions at the same time that theyre working to improve the health of their own communities.
