Dancing for Wellness

CRIS' Refugee Health and Wellness team teamed up with the Ohio State University's Dance Department to host an intern for the Fall 2014 and Spring 2015 semesters who will be working with a group of Bhutanese Nepali youth to choreograph a dance routine.This partnership will end with a recital in the community as a way to reinforce self esteem and cultural exchange in Columbus,  raising awareness on different traditions among the girls who will be learning a mixture of dance styles and the Columbus community who will have an opportunity to learn about their large and growing numbers of Bhutanese Nepali neighbors.
