Welcome to my blog!

My name is Irene Corona-Avila and I am an Albion College student engagement associate (SEA) and participant of the All of Us program. I will take you through my journey as both an SEA and a participant.

Why did I join?

As a member of the Mexican-American community, I witnessed opportunities and flaws within the healthcare system for underrepresented and low-income families. Being an SEA allows me to inform diverse (ethnic, economic, religion, age, etc.) communities about a research initiative aimed to correct the disproportionate impacts within U.S. healthcare. I became a partner, or participant, to learn more about my health lifestyle all while contributing to this innovative initiative.
