Unidas Por Salud, a community organization in Coachella Valley, enlisted my help to redesign their website. With a limited budget, the organization required a new website that would showcase their services, including a free clinic, while also highlighting their research efforts. The goal was to create an interactive platform that would serve as a hub for sharing valuable information, clinic events, and health resources.

The primary objective was to design and develop a cost-effective and user-friendly website for Unidas Por Salud. The website needed to showcase their free clinic, highlight research efforts, and provide a platform for sharing valuable health resources. Additionally, the organization required the ability to edit and update the website easily in the future.

1. Needs Assessment: I collaborated closely with the esteemed leadership team of Unidas Por Salud to understand their specific requirements, target audience, and goals for the website redesign project.

2. Interactive Platform Planning: Based on the gathered information, we determined the need for an interactive platform to showcase research, clinic events, and health resources. This would ensure a comprehensive online hub for the organization's activities.

3. Design Customization: Leveraging non-coding tools like Elementor, I crafted a visually appealing design that aligned with the organization's brand identity. Customizations included color schemes, typography, and imagery to enhance the overall aesthetics and engagement.

1. Front-End Development: Using Elementor, I developed a user-friendly and responsive website that met the organization's requirements. The website adapted seamlessly to different devices and screen sizes, ensuring accessibility for all users.

2. Content Integration: The website showcased the organization's free clinic prominently, along with research highlights and member profiles. Resources such as health articles and event updates were incorporated strategically for easy access.

3. Training and Empowerment: Understanding the organization's desire for future self-editing capabilities, I provided training and guidance on using Elementor. This empowered the team to make edits and updates to the website independently, reducing the need for external assistance.

The collaboration resulted in a successful website redesign for Unidas Por Salud, fulfilling their requirements and objectives. Key outcomes of the project include:

1. Interactive and Informative Platform: The new website served as an interactive hub, showcasing the organization's research, clinic events, and health resources. This facilitated enhanced engagement and provided valuable information to the community.

2. Cost-Effective Solution: Despite budget constraints, the project was delivered within the limited budget, ensuring optimal utilization of funds for the organization's primary focus on community health services.

3. User-Friendly Editing: By utilizing Elementor, the website was developed with a focus on easy editing and updates in the future. This eliminated the dependency on external assistance and empowered the organization to maintain and manage their website independently.

The website redesign project for Unidas Por Salud showcased their services, research efforts, and community initiatives effectively. Through close collaboration and utilizing tools like Elementor, the resulting website achieved the objective of providing a dynamic and user-friendly platform. The organization's ability to self-edit and update the website ensures long-term feasibility and empowerment. This project reinforced my commitment to contributing to community organizations and delivering impactful web solutions within limited budgets.
