 Hello!

The 2008-2009 Jade Ribbon Youth Council was recognized in the San Mateo County Times for their great work on Hepatitis B Awareness Week in May to raise awareness about hepatitis and liver cancer. Patrick Domingo, one of the members of the 15 person council was highlighted, and I'm happy to see the students garner recognition for the fantastic work they are doing to save lives in their communities.
