Together, these two friends, with the interventions of Spermy and Ovuly, navigate the best they through a period in life when hormones go wild.

Salud: Healing Through the Arts is grounded in the idea that art can foster meaningful dialog and cultivate strong connections among diverse groups of individuals. The project builds young community leaders by offering a space for personal expression while encouraging exploration of the connection between immigration and health issues. Through the performing arts, Salud improves immigrant health in the Mexican-American community and fosters better communication between immigrants and receiving community groups.
