Pastors for Peace Takes Medical Supplies to Cuba: Marge Stevens and Mike Bellstein

Marge Stevens and Mike Beilstein, who helped Pastors for Peace deliver medical supplies to Cuba this July, speak with host Roberta Hall about the medical work of Pastors for Peace, and its parent group, the Inter-religious Foundation for Community Organization (IFCO). Mike has been involved with the program for about 20 years and has traveled with the caravan for 10 years, while Marge has gone on two trips. They talk about the history of the program, the medical program in response to hurricanes that Cuba is famous for, why Cuba needs the prescription drugs that Pastors for Peace bring, the community health/primary care model that Cuba practices, the Latin American School of Medicine, and current relations between Cuba and the United States.
