Mark struggled at school and became depressed because he was
bullied. Ana Maria feared leaving her home after dark due to gun
violence. Mario and his family benefited from an intervention to
prevent the spread of avian flu in his village. Health problems
like these affect not only individuals but also families and
communities. These examples suggest how community health is
realized in peoples’ lives and affects people living in the same
place who share similar beliefs and values. For example, feeling
safe within one’s community is an essential part of living a
healthy life. The narratives in this book explore a wide range of
topics—social ties, gender and sexuality, mental illness,
violence, prevention, and health-care access—that shape community
health. Featuring “Communities in Action” sketches describing
good community health programming as well as a guide for teachers,
this book, along with its companions Global Health Narratives: A
Reader for Youth and Environmental Health Narratives: A Reader for
Youth (UNM Press), provides a comprehensive curriculum that
examines people’s health experiences across cultures and nations.
