In the US, the prevalence of liver cancer is increasing. Hispanics and African Americans tend to get diagnosed later, thus having higher mortality rates than other ethnicities.

In addition, we have a higher risk of developing diabetes than the general US population, and type 2 diabetes is linked to an increased risk of liver cancer. Therefore, there is a huge need to educate and inform our community

Last week we were in district continuing to build relationships with constituents and stakeholders across the district and beyond. Here’s the recap:

📻🇵🇷Learned about Carmen Enid Acevedo’s efforts to connect and facilitate deeper relationships and knowledge within the Boricua diaspora. As founder of Bonita Radio and Fundación Periodismo Siglo XXI she is touring Puerto Rican communities to connect the dots.

🚜Broke bread with our farmer partners in Lafayette County through the Adopt-A-Legislator program from the Illinois Farm Bureau while they were In Chicago for the annual conference to establish a statewide policy agenda.

👩🏽‍🎓Attended second convening for the Latino College Landscape Advisory Committee convened by the Latino Policy Forum to unpack systemic solutions to produce different outcomes.

🛹Participated in a Town Hall at Haas Park outlining the progress made and next steps for the upgrading of the Logan Square Skate Park. Love the swagg!

👩🏾‍⚕️Toured Chamberlain University College of Nursing and met with students who represent the best and the brightest in the nursing field and reflect the diversity of our communities.

⚕️Witnessed the variety of critical resources and deep expertise from local providers at our Northwest side Mental Health Fair at Copernicus Center

👨🏽‍🦳👩🏾‍🦱👩🏻👨🏿‍🦱🧑🏽‍🦱Met with the 20th District Policy Roundtable Members after several working meetings to share final recommendations for policy proposals to carry out in the next session.

🇲🇽🏆Ended the week joining my colleagues from the Latino Caucus receiving the highest honor from the Mexican Consulate General in Chicago in Chicago for recipients outside of Mexico for their annual Ohtli Award Ceremony.

Based on our most recent survey of Latino Families with UnidosUS and Latino Policy Forum, we found that long COVID is currently impacting a fourth of Latino families across the country.

It is becoming increasingly clear that the fight against the pandemic is far from over. We hope that our collective research will shed light on the long term health and socioeconomic impact of the pandemic on Latino families.

Read more about our initial findings from the The Brookings Institution:
If you missed the webinar on the Socioeconomic Effects of Covid-19 on Latino families hosted by Latino Policy Forum and The Brookings Institution, you can rewatch the recorded session on Youtube.

Thank you to all the panelists and everyone who joined who helped make the webinar successful.
