Declare your Latino Health Agenda!

Did you know that certain types of chronic and communicable diseases affect Colorado Latino/as at rates from 50% to 300% more often than the state average?  Focus brings power and we are asking you to come together with other Latino/a leaders from around the state to break the cycle of health disparities in our communities to declare a Latino Health Agenda.

On Saturday, March 13, in conjunction with Latina/o Advocacy Day, you are invited to a work session with fellow concerned leaders to help shape a joint declaration and plan for collective action.  Unidos por la Salud, United for Health, we will collectively build the power to change the systems of our state to give our children the same shot at a long and healthy life as the rest of Colorado.
