Grant aids health-care to Latinos


The N.C. Area Health Education Centers, which is based at the University, has received a grant to help improve communication between health-care workers and the state's growing Latino population.

The $498,000 grant from the Duke Endowment will fund the statewide program designed to promote Spanish fluency and related cultural competencies for health-care workers in North Carolina. An additional $888,000 is intended for the program during the next three years.
