Spanish Speaking Volunteers Needed for Día de los Muertos Event
ORGANIZATION: CommuniCare+OLE
Please visit the new page to apply.
CommuniCare Health Centers will be hosting our second annual Día de los Muertos celebration in The Garden at Hansen Family Health Center in Woodland!
On Friday October 29 th from 4pm-8pm the community will be invited to join us in the garden and surrounding area outside Hansen Clinic to participate in traditional Día de los Muertos activities. The event will feature a self-guided tour of the garden and a traditional altar where participants will have the option of joining in the Día de los Muertos rituals designed to celebrate and remember our deceased family and friends. Traditional Aztec music and dance performances are being planned and there will be COVID-19 vaccines offered on site.
We are looking for volunteers to help make the event a success. We are hoping that volunteers who speak Spanish fluently can be placed throughout the event space to help guide, educate, and encourage social distancing among the community members as they tour the garden. We will also need help to and break down the event. Volunteers can help before, during, or after the event (or during all three parts).

CommuniCare+OLE’s mission is to provide comprehensive and high-quality health care to anyone in our community regardless of insurance status or ability to pay. Our mission is characterized by the following commitments: - We deliver health care in a supportive, safe environment emphasizing patient partnership, wellness, and preventive health in all of our services. - We value the importance of a teaching and learning environment at all levels of the organization. - We are committed to the underlying philosophy that health care is a right, not a privilege.
Description
Established in 2023, CommuniCare+OLE is a union of two health centers with deep roots in their respective communities with reputations for providing high-quality primary care to patients and clients.: OLE Health of Napa and Solano Counties, and CommuniCare Health Centers of Yolo County.
Building on a legacy established by each organization in 1972, CommuniCare+OLE is a network of federally qualified health centers with 17 sites across Napa, Solano, and Yolo Counties. It offers comprehensive care, including medical, dental, behavioral health and substance use treatment, nutrition, optometry, pharmacy, care coordination, referrals, and enrollment assistance to more than 70,000 individuals, and no one is turned away due to lack of insurance, immigration status, or ability to pay. Many services are offered outside of its sites, including mobile health, home visiting, and community and school-based programs.
In October 2023, OLE Health of Napa and Solano and CommuniCare Health Centers of Yolo County announced a legally executed merger between the two organizations and unveiled their new brand: CommuniCare OLE. As a critical part of the healthcare safety net, CommuniCare OLE ensures care for everyone, regardless of ability to pay or insurance status.
CommuniCare+OLE’s services include Primary Care, Behavioral Health, Substance Use Services, Perinatal Care, Dental Care, Pediatrics, Sexual Health, Women’s Health, LGBTQIA+ Affirming Care, Diabetes Education and Food and Nutrition services.
