Aetna publishes an African American History Calendar and a bilingual
Latino Calendar
http://www.aetna.com/about/aetna/diversity/aahcalendar.html This year's
theme for the African American Calendar is "Health Literacy: A Dose of
Understanding". Most exciting to me is the community advocate featured
in July, Ira Combs, Community Nurse and Project Coordinator for the
University of Nebraska Medical Center. Ira serves on several National
Library of Medicine working groups, including the NN/LM MCR Regional
Advisory Board and the Nebraska Go Local Working Group. He was featured
in a podcast last year

calendar, including a link to an order form at
