Center for Hispanic Medical Students Loses All Its U.S. Aid in New York City
Tagged: Doctor, studentThe center, the first such Hispanic center in the state, recently lost all its financial support from the federal government.
“The Hispanic Center of Excellence teaches medical students and doctors of various backgrounds about Hispanic culture and conducts research on Latino health issues. Yet its main focus is recruiting and encouraging Hispanic students to pursue health care careers. The center does this in part by providing academic counseling, scholarships and professional networking.
These days, Mr. Romo and other Hispanic students fear that their already difficult task will be made even more difficult. Budget cuts in Washington are threatening the future of the federally financed center.”
