Abstract
This presentation describes an effort to increase uptake of mammograms among Nepali New Americans at the Community Health Centers of Burlington, VT. After interviewing the Medical Director and hearing from patients about barriers to mammography, an infographic and Powerpoint slide was created and will eventually be translated into Nepali. Future efforts to improve uptake of mammography could include a preventative care course for New Americans and/or a coordinator assigned to preventative care efforts.
