Centro Latino in the News: Dream Act Vigil for Selvin Arevalo-May 26th

MPBN: Portland Man Faces Uphill Fight in Battle for Legal Status – 05/26/2010
Reported By: Josie Huang

A national campaign is underway to allow some undocumented students to become permanent residents. In Portland, a 24-year-old man named Selvin Arevalo has become one of the faces of the movement. Supporters held a rally this afternoon outside Cumberland County Jail, where Arevalo, a student and house painter, is facing deportation after he was involved in a motor vehicle accident, and police discovered his illegal status.

The 5th Annual Multicultural Exercise for Health and Love

A health fair to focus on health screenings and referrals

What: In May, Portland will hold its fifth annual Multicultural Exercise for Health and Love: a health fair that focuses on health screenings and referrals for racial and ethnic minority communities in the Greater Portland area. The event will celebrate the health and well being of Portland’s vibrant ethnic communities with multicultural food, dance and festivities. All attendees will be encouraged to take advantage of the culturally sensitive diabetes and heart health screenings, risk assessments and counseling. Admission is free.

The event is being organized by the Minority Health Program of Portland’s Public Health Division in partnership with Mercy Hospital in southern Maine in response to the health needs of the racial/ethnic communities in the Greater Portland area. Screenings will be conducted by the Maine Heart Center, and interpreters for more than twelve different languages will be available. There will be 750-900 community members attending and notable local area health providers providing assessment services, answering questions and distributing health information on specific health issues facing these communities. A post-event referral and improved access to primary care service providers are part of the package. All Portland area multicultural communities are encouraged to come, enjoy, dance, learn and screen yourself – you won’t be disappointed.

For more information, contact Dr. Bankole, A. K at 207-874-8773, or via email bak@portlandmaine.gov.

Who: “This event is a terrific way for Portland’s multicultural communities to learn about health care issues in a fun and supportive environment,” stated Dr. A.K. Bankole, Minority Health Program Coordinator, City of Portland, Public Health Division, Health and Human Services Department.
