This is one of the few rooms at the clinic where people can come in for counseling, group therapy, testing, check-ups and other resources. I spent time answering phones to alleviate the high call volume; scheduled appointments, answered questions, etc...
A picture of us at our going away party at JASL. All of the clients came together to throw us a farewell party with an 'interesting' theme.
We participated in a campus radio interview that allowed us the opportunity to talk about the Jamaica Aids Support for Life organization, mission, strengths, needs, weaknesses, and what our project 'Speaking Volumes' entailed.
This is a picture of our bosses at JASL. They guided us through creating Speaking Volumes'. Speking Volumes is the book we created to solicit attention and funds to the disadvantaged populations served at JASL. We intervied the clients and transcribed those interviews ( a long and arduous process).
I took a photo with one of my favorite clients at JASL. "She" was transgendered and shunned from society and her family/friends because of her lifestyle. Luckily, she found refuge at JASL, like most of their other clientele. "She" was very handy and earned her keep by fixing things around JASL.
