Ideas for Improving Hispanic Health with Dr. Elena Rios, President & CEO, National Hispanic Medical Association; Charles Barber on “Paz y Salud” Publication

Portions of this broadcast previously aired in May 2021.

As we mark Hispanic Heritage Month, we hear from Dr. Elena Rios, President and CEO of the National Hispanic Medical Association, which represents the interests of the nation’s 50,000 Latino physicians. This is an encore presentation from 2021 yet many of the issues we discussed then are still relevant, including Latino vaccine hesitancy and the pandemic’s mental health toll. Join hosts Mark Masselli and Margaret Flinter for their conversation about how to address health inequities affecting the Hispanic community.

In addition, author Charles Barber sits down with Mark Masselli to discuss the publication of “Paz y Salud,” the translation of his book about Community Health Center, “Peace & Health,” into Spanish.
