On May 21st, 2026, healthcare professionals, advocates, community leaders, and frontline providers gathered for the Health Equity Summit. Our goal was simple yet urgent: to build a healthcare system that works for everyone on Long Island, regardless of background, language, or life experience.
Together, we moved past standard dialogue to focus on actionable, real-world solutions.
To every presenter, sponsor, and advocate who dedicated their time, expertise, and passion to this event, thank you. We hope to see you all next year at the Health Equity Summit 2027. More information to come!
We also thank you, Sage Media Production, without your sight to see beauty, we could not have captured these valuable moments. 

El 21 de mayo de 2026, profesionales de la salud, defensores, líderes comunitarios y proveedores de atención directa se reunieron en la Cumbre sobre Equidad en Salud. Nuestro objetivo era sencillo pero urgente: construir un sistema de salud que funcione para todos en Long Island, independientemente de su origen, idioma o experiencias de vida.
Juntos, fuimos más allá del diálogo convencional para centrarnos en soluciones prácticas y aplicables en el mundo real.
Gracias a todos los ponentes, patrocinadores y defensores que dedicaron su tiempo, experiencia y pasión a este evento. Esperamos verlos el próximo año en la Cumbre sobre Equidad en Salud 2027. ¡Pronto habrá más información!
También agradecemos a Sage Media Production; sin su mirada capaz de apreciar la belleza, no habríamos podido capturar estos valiosos momentos.

Day 3 in Washington, D.C. El Encuentro Nacional

Today, we visited the offices of Congressman Garbarino and Congressman Goldman. We brought a clear message and shared real stories about how current policies are impacting our communities—particularly in the areas of access to healthcare, immigration, artificial intelligence, and education.

These conversations are critical to ensuring that the voices of immigrant families, women, survivors, and underserved communities are heard by policymakers. Advocacy is about more than policy; it is about people, their experiences, and their right to thrive.

Proud to represent SEPA Mujer and Long Island, elevating the voices of those we serve and advocating for policies that promote equity, opportunity, and justice for all.
