Taller Salud Inc

What it reported doing in 2024

In the fiscal year 2024-2025, more than 22,000 people living in 20 municipalities around Puerto Rico received Taller Salud direct services. The Women and Health Initiative works to protect women's rights, with a special emphasis on improving women's access to comprehensive healthcare, economic independence, and well-being. Throughout the year, community health promoters participated in comprehensive training that combined technical knowledge and tools for promoting health and well-being. They strengthened their critical awareness and their capacity to act as agents of change in the communities. Each group implemented community workshops and outreach activities, sharing knowledge with other women and consolidating their leadership through educational spaces and collective care. Our Youth leadership group Afrocaribeñas stood out for their work in anti-racist education and gender equality, creating campaigns, workshops, and meetings with other young people to expand their support network and leadership development. In providing care to women affected by gender-based violence, we have implemented comprehensive, flexible, and sustained support strategies. These strategies have fostered empowerment, safety, and autonomy, while simultaneously generating new advances that strengthen participants' capacity to face risky situations, make informed decisions, and rebuild their lives with greater confidence and stability. Despite persistent structural and economic challenges, we remain committed to offering ethical, sensitive, and survivor-centered care. Women and Health has drawn on advocacy efforts and public policy analysis for its community organizing work on issues of access to healthcare, reproductive care and violence against women.
