Coming soon! A redesigned AMIGAS kit

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is redesigning the AMIGAS kit – a bilingual, community-sourced educational outreach program designed to help health workers and others connect with Hispanic women about the importance of cervical cancer screening. This is a free, downloadable resource for the community built on the idea that one-on-one or small group education increases screening use. Hispanic women have a high incidence of cervical cancer, but are less likely to get a Pap test than non-Hispanic white women.
