Great start of the week for The Aspen Institute : Two of the #HealthyCommunities Fellows had their OpEd commentaries posted on the Aspen Institute Blog! Maria Valenzuela's moving story begins with a broken arm in Mexico, having her uncle remove it with a big scary knife, moving to the U.S. two days later and then breaking the same arm again. Her account of navigating the health care system for her mother and family friends as a young immigrant girl, and then as a teen in the foster system, fueled her path to a career helping immigrant families find appropriate, quality care. She is≠ now the Program Director for the Esperança Inc International Health Organization in Phoenix, Arizona. Read Maria's #AspenInstitute blogpost, "'Health For All is Just a Slogan," here: https://lnkd.in/e8SSfrS #globalhealth #HealthForAll #immigranthealth #healthcareaccess …see more
