Esperanza y Vida Mission Statement
English | Español

Esperanza y Vida© consist of two culturally competent, community-based health education programs; a breast and cervical cancer program and a diabetes prevention program. Both programs have been designed to reach out to the Hispanic/Latino community in churches and community centers across New York City.  It features a group of Hispanic/Latino women and men who each speak about their triumph over breast and/or cervical cancer and diabetes to increase awareness, knowledge, and screening in the Hispanic/Latino communities.  Together, they share the good news that cancer or diabetes do not have to be an automatic death sentence.
.
Esperanza y Vida© offers more than just hope and life.  It also teaches women and their husbands/partners some simple things they can do in their own lives for their own health and well-being. 
Esperanza y Vida© is a program that can save lives.  If you want to know what you can do -- or if you want to have this program in your church or organization – please let us hear from you (212) 659-5660.
