Who we are
We recognize that many Hispanics in South Carolina confront multiple barriers to healthcare. These include access, information, knowledge, resources, and cultural competency, both in terms of providers and those utilizing services. With this in mind, the overarching goal of the South Carolina Hispanic/Latino Health Coalition is to work together to advocate for the availability of quality, culturally and linguistically appropriate healthcare services in South Carolina.
We are a non-profit organization made of various professionals (both health-centered and non-health professionals) who seeks to improve the health of Hispanics/Latinos in Columbia via healthcare services, outreach programs, and research.
- We link this population to health resources via collaboration with pre-existing health organizations, research, and communication opportunities.
- We engage in activities to increase community awareness of Hispanic health issues and involvement in programs and initiatives to improve the health of Hispanics/Latinos.
