More Than Pink: Barriers in Healthcare – The Latino Community Challenge with Jill Rameriz

Jill Ramirez (CEO & President, Latino Healthcare Forum, Austin TX) has made it her personal mission to make sure the Latino community in Austin, Texas has healthcare. She’s spent decades educating her community, training community health workers, and making sure Latinos know how to access healthcare.

“I think each community is very warm, has wisdom and they know what works for them. And so we really have to listen to what they are telling us about what their needs are.”

– Jill Ramirez
