As Hispanic Heritage Month comes to a close, the Latino Center for Health celebrates the strength, growth, and contributions of Washington’s Latino community. Through research, policy advocacy,
student grants and mentorship, workforce development, and programs like Mi Salud, we work to advance health equity, improve access to care, and support healthier communities across the state.
Continued investment in prevention, health education, culturally responsive care, and community-driven solutions that help Latino families thrive is essential.

Dr. Leo Morales, LCH Co-Director, and Dr. Aida Hidalgo-Arroyo, Manager of Community Health Initiatives, represented the Mi Salud program at the 2026 Washington Free and Charitable Care Conference. They presented a panel highlighting some of the work they have been doing with Latino/e communities across Washington state—from cardiometabolic screenings to helping people connect with follow-up care.

It was an opportunity to share lessons learned through their work in the community and to hear from others working to make care more accessible across Washington.

Great conversations, new connections. 💜
