September is full of beginnings and endings. This weekend marked the graduation of my women´s reproductive health class, my second sex-ed class for youth, and my health promoter training workshops. I have now started the water filter project which consists of 3 community meetings in each of my three communities. In Guayabo there has been a huge demand for the water filters. We will see if it is the same in the other two communities.

Also, I will be moving into my new Dominican house next week! The lighting and water have been installed, only a bit of paint lacks. I am having some other volunteers visit the first weekend in October to help paint the outside of the house. My community women are so great-- many of them have already starting gifting me plates, pots and cups! I probably wont have to buy any kitchen tools! Imagine that! Unfortunately, I wont be able to upload any pictures until Thanksgiving due to my broken computer.
