Erie House, Health Programs, and Super H-Itos Summary: 
Erie Neighborhood House, a community-based organization serving Chicago’s West Town, Little Village, and Humboldt Park neighborhoods since 1870, promotes a just and inclusive society by strengthening low-income, primarily Latino families through skill-building, access to critical resources, advocacy and collaborative action. 

Serving the low-income, primarily immigrant, Latino community, Erie House knows that the health of our community’s children and families is mediated by poverty and other crucial social determinants of health.  As of 2012, an estimated 39.4% of Mexican-American children ages 2-19 are overweight, compared with 27.9% of their non-Hispanic white counterparts1. Studies have shown that Hispanic children experience the negative effects of obesity including elevated blood pressure, hypertension and low self-esteem, more often than non-Hispanic black and non-Hispanic white children2.  For a community that is ravaged by diabetes, heart disease and obesity, especially among its children, a program is needed that can successfully combat many of these challenges in a culturally competent context.  

Super H-Itos is a preventive health curriculum for preschoolers created to complement existing programs for elementary school students and parents. All Erie House health programs utilize a modeling strategy, as true family transformation is most lasting when parents/teachers and children learn similar ideas and model new, healthy behaviors to one another. 

The Super H-Itos curriculum was built with the following objectives:   
✓ integrating fruits and vegetables into the participants’ diets,  
✓ increasing movement,  
✓ developing self-esteem as a critical element of mental and physical health.  

The end goal is exposure to healthy lifestyles and habits.

The role of the Super H-Itos interns is to facilitate a health-focused curriculum and to model a healthy lifestyle in preschool classrooms. Each intern is assigned to one classroom and will spend two mornings each week leading the children in different art, movement, food, and literary activities. It’s a fun and playful environment!

                                                          

Supervisor: Micaella Verro, Director of Health Programs  

Qualifications: 
• Currently enrolled in Undergraduate or Graduate degree program, preferably with a focus on public health, education, and/or early childhood
• Prior experience working with children preferred 
• Able to take initiative in leading activities for preschoolers 
• Able to work with people from a variety of backgrounds and cultures 
• Successful completion of a background check and TB test (MANDATORY)

Duties: 
• Participate in all training meetings and activities

•  Review of the population data from our EMR and development of a model to identify patients with greater health risk due to the social determinants of health.  This would include identification of disease states, geographic information and economic information gleaned from our patients sources of insurance funding.  Students would review the data, build the model and identify gaps in the information currently collected in our EMR.  The student would present a model to identify patients at risk related to each of the social determinants of health.
•  Identification of partners, by geography, cultural expertise and topic expertise, to address the health risks related to social determinants.  Using the population analysis previously conducted, the student would research organizations we could partner with to refer patients for services, on a geographic basis, with a focus on health equity issues and cultural considerations with the different populations we serve.  The student would identify the services the organization offered and the organizations capacity/limitation on serving our various patient population segments.
