Why Photonovels?
A photonovel (fotonovela) is a story told through dialog and photographs or illustrations.
- Research shows that people remember stories better than a mere set of facts.
- Stories build a reader's self-confidence.
- Photonovels are engaging and fun to read.
- Readers save and share them with family and friends.
- Our unique photonovel features make them an ideal resource for learning English and Spanish.

National Institute of Minority Health & Health Disparities SBIR Study
The goal of this Small Business Innovation Research grant was two-fold:
- Build the capacity within communities to improve the access to and quality of prenatal education for Latinas and their families, and
- Strengthen partnerships with the families' medical home and other systems of care.
The study was designed to develop and test a prenatal education program based on the TWS Method™ and De Madre A Madre prenatal care photonovels. The groups were facilitated by promotoras de salud (lay health educators/community health workers).
