Harnwell House Fellow helps cultivate health

President's Engagement Prize winners José Maciel and Antonio Renteria​, along with Harnwell College House Fellow Adriana Perez, Assistant Professor in the School of Nursing, are making a difference in the lives of migrant workers in nearby Kennett Square, the heartland of mushroom farming in the United States.  With a focus on continuing care that doesn't interfere with the farmers' ability to maximize their income, the Cultivando Juntos program these students are spearheading is finding ways to increase health and longevity for these laborers. “These are the kinds of efforts that can help farmworkers in America live longer, healthy lives,” says Professor Perez.  Click here for more.
