culture, beliefs or their heritage. The heritage assessment tool is designed to help patients the opportunity to talk about their background and beliefs but it did not give an option of what is important, what they need, what they actually believe in and how they should be taken care of.

Experiencing Heritage Day was truly an inspirational and touching event that has changed my perspective of not only the people of the Lehigh Valley, but the community as a whole.

The homeless of the Lehigh Valley are not provided with the clean and safe facilities that a majority of the general population has access to. The generous professionals and volunteers at…

American history. However, minority groups have had an equal impact, but their history is often ignored because they lack the institutional power. Thus, the reason why there is a National Park Service Boston Black Heritage Trail on Beacon Hill but no National Park Service Boston White Heritage Trail on Beacon…

Does your heritage make an impact on how you live today? To be honest I am not really affected by my Moroccan heritage, but I would like to start some more traditions with my family. Some things I would like to start doing are eating more Moroccan foods, learning about their religion, and learning about how they live. Many Moroccans eat different foods than Americans. For example they like to cook different than we do, this is called a cuisine. Cuisine is a traditional Moroccan style of…

President Barack Obama declared June to be National Immigrant Heritage Month. It’s a relatively new celebration, but it’s starting to catch fire. 2016 is its third year, and now many celebrities, everyday people, and organizations have stepped into the spotlight to showcase their culture and their #immigrantpride. Here in our county, OneMacomb has been leading efforts to promote inclusion and diversity for many years, and now Immigrant Heritage Month is one more stepping stone in that process.…
