Abstract
You will learn about Indian and Chicano people and the problems they have. The experiences you have may strengthen your bigoted attitudes and make you a red neck or, as you become aware of the culture of poverty, you may develop a sensitivity to minority problems, which you will carry with you throughout your professional career. At times, when the frustration level at the Health Center is high, it is good to remember the following ideas. Indians, and to a lesser degree Chicanos, are where they are because paternalistic Anglo dogooders prevented them from controlling their own destinies… The things you will accomplish at the health center will be small, the rewards will be intangible and the frustrations will be high (Orientation document, Indian Chicano Health Center, 1972)
