Advocacy . Research . Training (ART)
One of the Hispanic Health Council’s core pillars is system and policy advocacy, conducted to impact the many barriers to health experienced by diverse communities at the causal level. We conduct system and policy advocacy to assure that conditions are in place for all people to achieve their highest level of health.
Research has been a core pillar for the Hispanic Health Council’s pursuit of its mission since its inception. The Hispanic Health Council was founded with a vision of addressing barriers to health care and positive health status by improving polices and systems that impact health, access to health care and social well-being.
The Cross Cultural & Diversity Inclusiveness (CC&DI) training program is an essential service of the Hispanic Health Council. The goal of CC&DI is to establish the foundation of knowledge, attitudes, and skills needed for institutions, organizations, and individuals to interact effectively with clients of diverse backgrounds.
