Facilitating partnerships with Hispanic/Latino communities in Missouri

"ESSENTIAL SPANISH FOR UMKC-IHD STAFF"

In March 2007 Alianzas launched a six-week series of basic Spanish classes for University of Missouri-Kansas City Institute for Human Development (UMKC-IHD) staff.  This curriculum was developed to afford UMKC-IHD staff with the opportunity to build a foundation of Spanish-language comprehension and pronunciation, learn about the Hispanic/Latino culture and the belief systems that are emerging in Missouri, and be more greatly equipped to effectively assist Hispanic/Latino families that have children with developmental disabilities.
