STATE OF LATINO HEALTH IN NEW YORK CITY

Creating an Architecture of Intervention

The State of Latino Health is a first-of-its-kind study, conducted among physcians and patients seeking to better understand how after decades of efforts designed to bring health care to under-served Latinos, desparities remain. This study seeks to outline the biggest and unique health care challenges facing New York's Latino population today and outline the solutions needed to fix them.
