INTRODUCTION Part of cultural competency is advocating for sensitive patient populations with regard to health issues or needed improvements in the community. A big part of advocacy is uncovering effective stories discovered in your community assessment. Equally important is understanding how to broadcast your discoveries to the larger community. In our society today, social media is a powerful leveraging tool to get a story out, build support, and demonstrate advocacy. In this task, you will be submitting your completed Community Health Field Experience timelog. The activities you completed in your community relay back to your field experience topic and focus on a primary prevention. In addition, you will create a social media campaign to convey a health message to the target population. Please note: Your timelog will be submitted via DocuSign. As you input activities and sign it, the document will be emailed to you. You can then attach the final, signed document below as a part of this task. If your timelog is returned from evaluation with corrections needed, you will use the “Community Health Addendum” link below to make the necessary corrections. You will input the line and activities that needed correction from the original timelog and below it put the corrected line and activities. Both the original timelog and the addendum must be submitted as a part of this task. Please refer to the how-to guide on how to fill out the addendum.
