OneWorld Progressive Institute, Inc. is a 501(C)3 Community Organization
and Public Charity committed to making positive contributions to the CT
Community.  We focus mainly on:

  • Health Care Literacy, Access and Advocacy
  • Reducing Disparities and Improving Health Care Outcomes for
    Disenfranchised Populations
  • Education, Financial Literacy & Building Positive Community, and on
  • Effective Communication

  • Our goal is the focus on those areas and on those aspects of the community where the   
    greatest needs exit.  We want to find and bring to the community reliable information about
    various aspects of health care, education and financial issues that can make a positive
    difference in people's lives. Please help us to do that.  Share your stories, your experiences
    and your concerns with us; help us to help you and to help others.
  • Together we can achieve GREAT good.

  • Of course, information can only make a positive difference if that information is used.  We
    encourage our fellow citizens to be proactive and be involved in finding solutions to the
    issues about which they are concerned.

  • We live in a democracy; that democracy must be challenged every day to live up to its   
    tenets.  We the people must make that challenge.  OneWorld, Inc. encourages each citizen to  
    get involved and help our democracy to work effectvely for all of us.

  • Get involved in your public schools.

  • If there is crime in your community, start a block watch.

  • If you are overweight, form a walking group to help you to lose weight and stave off
    diabetes.

  • Do you know the symptoms of high blood pressure (BP)?  Often, there are no symptoms;
    that's why it is called the "silent killer."  Get your blood pressure measured.

  • If you are African-American or Hispanic, you are more likely to have high blood pressure.

  • Reducing very salty foods can help to lower blood pressure

  • If you do not have a computer, use one at the library; get informed, and get involved in your
    community.

  • Join a book club, or start one with your neighbors & friends.  Instead of spening $10 on a
    movie; read a book; go for a walk; write your own story; read to children on your block.  
    Change your space; change your community.
