S5 Ep. 5: Cancer Trends in Latino Communities

What do we know about cancer trends in Latino communities? In this episode, we are excited to have a conversation with Ysabel Duron from The Latino Cancer Institute, Dr. Amelie Ramirez from University of Texas Health, San Antonio, and Gladys Arias from the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network.

Join us as we dive into our lived experiences and talk about cancer trends that impact Latino communities in Washington, California, and Texas. We hope that this conversation strengthens our shared efforts and provides insights into community-led initiatives that are making a difference.
