The Latino Data Hub, created by the UCLA Latino Policy and Politics Institute (LPPI), is a free, bilingual platform offering accessible, disaggregated data about our diverse Latino communities. Among its ten issue areas, the section on health insurance is especially powerful, showing how equitable access to coverage is essential for better health outcomes, economic stability, and the well-being of our families. By providing these insights, the Hub equips us—as advocates, researchers, and community leaders—with the data we need to advance health equity and culturally responsive solutions.
Explore the Latino Data Hub—now upgraded with new features, tutorials, and guides.
The Latino Cancer Institute hosted a Forum highlighting critical research on the rise in gastric (stomach) cancer among Latinos, which is fueled by increasing obesity rates and other factors.
You can now access all of the presentation materials online, including videos, slides, and the program book with presenter biographies.
Visit our 2024 Forum Series web page for links to all the materials, and find out what leading experts shared about persistent racial and ethnic disparities in the incidence, mortality, and survival rates of gastric cancer in the United States.
Successful advocacy relies on a deep understanding of the legal or legislative policies that impact our cause. Members of The Latino Cancer Institute are given the opportunity to discuss and dissect, develop and debate policy and positions that can further or hinder our work. We expect our strength in numbers and united voices to hold sway with lawmakers who must answer to the 60 million Latinos in this country. We show up informed and ready to take a seat at the national table to be heard, understood, and ready to take part in any proposed policy that affects our community.
