Congrats to Paola Arteaga from TouroCOM Middletown on being elected the next Latino Medical Student Association (LMSA) Northeast Lead! Paola says of her new role: "The Latino Medical Student Association is dedicated to connecting current and future physicians through community service, mentorship, and education in advocacy for the medical health of the Hispanic and Latina/o/x community. I decided to run for the LMSA CoDirector Elect position and I am excited and humbled to have been elected. I am looking forward to working with chapters in the NorthEast region to help them reach their goals of better serving the community and prepare them to become culturally competent physicians. My goals are to continue to work alongside the passionate LMSA family to foster diversity in medical schools, advancing mentorship between physicians and students and learning from the Hispanic and Latina/o/x community."
March is Social Work Month and students from Touro’s Graduate School of Social Work recently joined their peers throughout New York in Albany for social work’s annual Legislation and Advocacy Day, known as “LEAD DAY”. They lobbied for passage of the “Family Miranda Rights Act” that would ensure that families are informed of their Miranda rights at the onset of a child protective investigation, and the “Eliminate Predatory Court Fees Act”, that would eliminate fees and fines that fall most heavily on the poor and communities of color “LEAD was a great experience!” said GSSW student Frederick Marte. “As a MSW student, I was able to put into practice what I learned in my first and second semesters. I was no longer learning by reading or studying, but by doing!
