The event allowed those who usually struggle with a language barrier to have access to critical health resources.
They offered free vaccines, HIV testing, and accesses to overdose kits. Angela Trillo helps put it all together and said in many cases some people don’t get screened because of that language gap.
“Imagine that I come to you and say you have x, y, z, that is all we understand but right now we all have the same opportunity to understand prevention and health,” Trillo said.
Trillo said this is just the beginning and how thankful she was for people who don’t speak English to have access to never before resources.
