Guest guest Posted November 30, 2001 Report Share Posted November 30, 2001 Dear list members, I am an addiction psychiatrist who has recently switched from clinical work to prevention and research;,mostly with Latinos and especially with farmworkers. I am searching for better materials for a substance use prevention program I run in Southeast Michigan and noticed Neander had a similar question in June (but can't figure out how to pull addresses from old messages- sorry for repeating old questions!). or others, could you please write back to me as to what you obtained from Mexico with the list's help? I am especially interested in video recommendations. I have scoured the US for years and can't find anything that fits very well re: culture, literacy, context and language. Mil gracias! Lucila P.S. I really enjoyed the archived messages about alcohol and HIV issues! Lucila Nerenberg, M.D. Research Investigator, Addiction Research Center Department of Psychiatry, University of Michigan 400 E.

Guest guest Posted November 30, 2001 Report Share Posted November 30, 2001 Lucila-sorry for being slow in getting back to you. don't remember te messages from june and so i hope that you can get that info from someone with a better memory.I believe that the folks at harvest house in north carolina and albert pacheco in washington state would be able to give you a great fun down on materials that they use. Also some of the best work out of mexico city included a young research named maria de jesus diaz perez. she is currently working with the plan de salud del valle health center in ft. lupton colorado. if any of these contacts are of interest to you, i can get you phone numbers or email addresses. perhaps you have already contacted these folks so i don't want to waste your time if you have. good luck to you and keep the list posted on your work. thanks. dgarcia > -----Original Message----- > From: Lucila Nerenberg [mailto:nerenber@...] > Sent: Friday, November 30, 2001 11:04 AM > > Subject: [ ] farmworkers & alcohol > > > Dear list members, > > I am an addiction psychiatrist who has recently switched from > clinical work to prevention and research;,mostly with Latinos and > especially with farmworkers. > > I am searching for better materials for a substance use > prevention program I run in Southeast Michigan and noticed > Neander had a similar question in June (but can't figure out how > to pull addresses from old messages- sorry for repeating old > questions!). or others, could you please write back to me > as to what you obtained from Mexico with the list's help?

Guest guest Posted December 1, 2001 Report Share Posted December 1, 2001 Hello o, For data and analyses of farmworker poisonings in California (1991-1996) please see the report, " Fields of Poison: California farmworkers and pesticides. " Our home page is http://www.panna.org/ , the report text can be found at: http://www.panna.org/resources/labor.html We are currently in the process of preparing an updated report (1997-1999).

Guest guest Posted December 1, 2001 Report Share Posted December 1, 2001 o, The Washington Pesticide Incident Reporting and Tracking Review Panel (PIRT) issues an annual report that contains some of this information (you would need to interpret it, however to precisely get farmworkers). A contact for this would be: Lynden Baum, at the Washington Department of Health: Lynden.Baum@... Please remember though that many people feel reported pesticide-related incidents may only be a small proportion of the number of actual such incidents due to difficulty in diagnosis, lack of recognition by health care providers, fear of reporting on the part of the farmworker, no requirement to report such incidents in most states (that is not true of Washington) and many other reasons.

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2001 Report Share Posted December 3, 2001 Lucila, A good resource for addiction prevention and treatment is FIPADIC, an NGO in Apizaco, Tlaxcala, Mexico. I attended a very good workshop they did for teens while studying there. The email is fipadic@... and the website is http://apizaco.podernet.com.mx/fipadic FYI there was a bilingual counselor there when I visited. Good luck!

Guest guest Posted December 7, 2001 Report Share Posted December 7, 2001 Thank you everyone for the useful information. I am still looking for materials. As literacy level is an issue with the population in my area a video or info on a PSA campaign that has evaluation data to support its effectiveness would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Neander >>> esther_miller@... - 12/3/01 7:08 AM >>> Lucila, A good resource for addiction prevention and treatment is FIPADIC, an NGO in Apizaco, Tlaxcala, Mexico.
