Salud

Salud is the Homewood campus’s initiative for Hispanic/Latino health. Salud seeks to alleviate the cultural and linguistic barriers that many Hispanics/Latinos in Baltimore encounter when seeking medical care. To accomplish this goal, Salud targets two populations. First, they target the Hispanic/Latino community itself through health fairs, health education presentations, and community outreach. Second, they target their health care providers and institutions through cultural competency training and interpretation services.
