Latinos United Through Advocacy: Elevating our voice to advance Hispanic health, wellness, and equity in our communities.

Join us in Washington, DC from January 31-February 2 for the 2024 NAHN Hispanic Health Policy Summit at the Willard InterContinental!

The Hispanic Health Policy Summit unites the Latino healthcare community to advocate for the health care issues affecting the Hispanic population and proposing potential solutions. The National Association of Hispanic Nurses is excited to lead this joint summit in partnership with other Latino-focused medical associations supporting the needs of the Hispanic community. The first and third day of this summit will consist of educational sessions, while the second day is reserved for participants to attend individual Hill Day visits scheduled by the Summit organizers.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

  1. Expand knowledge of health policy issues affecting Latino communities.
  2. Develop skills necessary to advocate effectively and advance access to equitable healthcare for America’s Latino population.
  3. Network with peers across disciplines to strategize and advocate for patient centered culturally sensitive care across healthcare fields.
  4. Express a unified voice when engaging with policymakers about the healthcare needs of the Hispanic community.
  5. Collaborate across disciplines on healthcare priorities affecting the Hispanic community.
