Resources for Spanish and Cultural Competency

In response to the tremendous growth of the Latino population in North Carolina, the NC AHEC Program secured special funding from the Duke Endowment to provide resources to health providers to increase competency in working with Latino clients and patients. The 3-year grant expired in Spring of 2001, however, some resources remain in the region. Those interested in programming in these areas should contact Wake AHEC’s customer service team at (919) 350-8547.

Resources include:  The North Carolina AHEC Latino Health Resource Center.
