¡Si, se puede! Engaging Latines in Clinical Research

Even though the Latinx/Hispanic community makes up around 20% of the population in the United States, representation in trials hardly reaches that percentage. Over the last decade, health inequity has steadily increased within the Latinx communities. These communities face unique obstacles to accessing healthcare, enrollment, and retention. This interactive webinar will reflect on the need for culturally competent research and advocacy, the complexity of the Latinx identity, and the need to reflect on how we relate to the Latine identity. It will provide tools to bridge the gap with Latinidades and create innovative community engagement strategies. Are we ready to make “nothing about us, without us,” solidarity, and community empowerment in clinical research a reality?
