On April 17, 2009, LIF hosted a policy briefing to promote dialogue about the current environmental and reproductive health disparities facing the Latino community. The theme of the briefing will drive the conversation among academics, community leaders, elected officials staff and students from across California.
BASA and Pitbull's Club are proud to recognize Latino Issues Forum. Great things happen when we harness our community spirit and pull together for a good cause.
Latinos – a young, diverse and fast-growing community – live in the worst environmental communities and face the greatest health risks in California. Environmental risks such as hazard land use, poor air and water quality leave California Latino communities vulnerable to chronic illnesses such as asthma, cancer and reproductive health problems in both men and women.
The lack of environmental oversight and access to affordable health care services have left the underserved Latino community with the desire to advocate for their well-being by proposing policies that would significantly impact their community.
“We are pleased to have advocates, researchers, students and policy experts convene to discuss some of the most prevalent issues affecting our state. Latino Issues Forum’s ability to advocate and provide leadership is essential in continuing to maintain an equitable and sustainable society. Healthier Latinos means a healthier California!” stated Elmy Bermejo, Interim Executive Director of LIF.
Fast Facts
Reproductive health:
• Latinas have the highest risk of developing cervical cancer in California. In the Central Valley, for example, cervical cancer rates for Latinas are three times higher than those of Non-Hispanic Caucasians and are the highest among all ethnic groups. This is somewhat attributed to a low incidence of regular screening such as Pap smear tests among Latinas (1,2).
• Latinas have the highest rates of cervical cancer caused by the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV), which is considered the most common sexually transmitted infection in the U.S. (3).
• Latinos diagnosed with HIV develop AIDS within one year of diagnosis, which suggests that the majority of Latinos are diagnosed 8-10 years after acquiring HIV. Moreover, Latinas represent 29 percent of women living with HIV in California (4).
Environmental health
• One in six Latinos have been diagnosed with asthma in California. In the San Joaquin Valley, nearly one in five children has asthma (5).
• Nearly 90% of U.S. farm workers are Latino, and many of these laborers and their families are routinely exposed to toxic pesticides. In California, Hispanics employed as farm workers were found to have 59-69% greater risk of getting stomach, cervical, and uterine cancer, and some leukemias, compared with other Hispanics in the state (6).
• The placement of freeways and other major transportation hubs are disproportionately located in Latino or other low income communities, therefore these communities are the ones most impacted by diesel pollution (5). 41% of Latinos are likely to report respiratory problems in their household (7).
Latino Issues Forum (LIF) is a non-profit public policy and advocacy institute dedicated to advancing new and innovative public policy solutions for a better, more equitable, and prosperous society.
