Poder Latinx Relaunches El Poder De Tu Salud Campaign Encouraging Latinx Voters to Vote for Health

WASHINGTON - Poder Latinx celebrates this year’s civic health month with  El Poder de tu Salud, a campaign driving attention to a continuous number of healthcare topics affecting the Latinx community. This month is dedicated to activities that will increase awareness on how the participation of patients and healthcare workers in the political process can impact their lives and that our communities at large, we are continuing to build an inclusive democracy for all.  The conversations will feature speakers who have created resources that will educate Latinx communities on the importance of maintaining and strengthening health, educational issues, and voting efforts.

The campaign is aligned with and celebrates collective efforts as part of Civic Health Month, a project of Vot-ER, which aims to bridge the gap between healthcare, community, and democracy. Poder Latinx is proud to partner on this momentous project during a critical time for healthcare education and awareness in the Latinx community. 

“Poder Latinx is excited to once again be leading this critical education opportunity for the Latinx community, highlighting the inadequacies of the healthcare system and the effects it has had for our community. We have been disproportionately impacted and need to cultivate our voices into political power to change that. We have an incredible opportunity with the Inflation Act of 2022 and its expansion of the Affordable Care Act. We need Congress to act now and create relief for the American people,” said Yadira Sanchez, executive director of Poder Latinx.
