Mission

The mission of the Latin X Cancer Alliance is to empower and educate Latinos about cancer, fostering awareness, prevention, and support within the community. Through culturally sensitive programs and initiatives, we strive to eradicate disparities in cancer knowledge and promote early detection, treatment access, and survivorship.

Our Alliance aims to be a trusted resource, providing comprehensive information, resources, and a supportive network that empowers Latinos to take control of their health and make informed decisions in their cancer journey. Together, we work towards a future where every Latino individual has equal opportunities for cancer education, prevention, and ultimately, a healthier and cancer-free community.

I was born in Veracruz Mexico and moved to the United States 26 years ago. My family and I have come to understand what disparities mean in our health care system. So much of it is about lack of access to knowledge and insurance to get screened and tested, which is why I started Latinx Cancer Alliance “LCA”
