Latinos

Hello,

I am trying to locate pamphlets/booklets designed for Latinos/Hispanics
in Spanish dealing with asthma, HIV/AIDS, pelvic inflammatory disease,
tuberculosis, hepatitis, flu, pneumonia, organ transplantation. Since
most Spanish speaking Latinos also have low

materials would be particularly helpful.

Thanks,
