Salir Adelante is a health and leadership initiative designed to strengthen Latina women’s capacity to identify and address health barriers. It centers around a Participatory Action approach, in which the community co-facilitates research and advocacy strategies to create change through collective inquiry.

With this initiative we aim to use Latina-led recommendations and insights to drive local policy change, while fostering the skills of emerging leaders.

Outcomes of this initiative include:

• Community assessment of barriers and facilitators of health access
• Policy Briefs to reflect assessment findings
• Media materials developed by Young Leaders
