NSCHC is proud to announce that Hector Santos, NSCHC Behavioral Health Therapist, has been accepted into the Vamos por Más Hispanic/Latine Behavioral Health Empowerment and Leadership Academy for 2024-2025. This innovative 12-month program’s goal is to expand leadership skills to develop professionally and to advocate for the behavioral health of the Hispanic and Latino communities by accelerating change and achieving equity.

Hector will have the opportunity to access mentorship and leadership skill-development sessions, focusing on various behavioral health-related topics. These include fostering culturally responsive leadership, driving system changes to enhance the well-being of Latino communities, and strengthening advocacy skills for Hispanic and Latino populations.

Additionally, the program emphasizes building cross-sector partnerships between communities and behavioral health systems.

“I’m looking forward to this great opportunity,” says Santos, “and to help bridge the existing gap between the need that the Hispanic/Latino community is experiencing and the resources available to the community in a more effective way. Time to rock the world!”
