A very exciting e-mail from my program manager today. The program director in Bangkok is setting up my groups placements right now, and it looks like my request to work in women's health/women's issues in Bangkok is probably going to happen! This even more exciting given the more and more serious consideration I'm giving to going to nursing school to get a Master's in Nursing with a focus on Women's Health or on Nurse-Midwifery. Cool cool cool!
Anyway, there are two options for sites, one of which is a more common placement, and less outreach-oriented. You can read about that organization here: http://www.apsw-thailand.org/Intro.htm
The other organization, HAT, does a lot of sex ed work in the community and is a less common placement (which makes it seem kind of exciting), but also requires "many more hours" than a regular placement and might require me to work on weekends. You can read about that organization here:

I have to get back to my program manager about my preference pretty soon, and I'm leaning toward APSW because of the extra hours thing, but if you have thoughts or input, they'd be greatly appreciated!
