What does Hispanic Heritage Month mean to us?
Hispanic Heritage Month is a special time to celebrate the Hispanic community’s rich culture, history, and contributions. It is also an excellent opportunity to focus on crucial health education topics and address specific challenges the Spanish-speaking population faces. If you’ve felt lost about healthcare or insurance, it’s not your fault.
There are real-life factors that make this stuff confusing. These barriers are called social determinants of health, and they can either help you or set you back. There is overwhelming data from the US government and independent research that suggests that if you or your close relatives come from a Latin American country, social determinants of health are a major reason why these feels like such barriers. You’re not alone, and we’re here to talk about it and help.
We want to take the opportunity during Hispanic Heritage Month to highlight this and hopefully keep the conversation going and make some changes together.
