Tatiana's Story
“I don’t typically like asking for help with my path to achieve my goal of making a difference to help others in my community which has suffered from a lack of resources as a marginalized community…but I decided to apply to the Hispanic Cancer Health Foundation mentorship program and I’m glad I did.”
