πMAY CHAPTER OF THE MONTH π
Congratulations to SUNY Upstate Medical University LMSA for earning this monthβs spotlight! ππ€
From partnering with La Casita to host monthly lunch and learns centered on health equity and advocacy, to launching the LMSA Caminos Mentorship Program with 26 mentees and 14 mentors, SUNY Upstate LMSA continues to create meaningful spaces for mentorship, education, and comunidad.
Their impact doesnβt stop there. Through Spanish Word Mondays, volunteering at the Poverello Clinic, attending the LMSA Northeast Regional Conference, and collaborating with the Latino Law Student Association on an immigration, health, and equity workshop, this chapter has shown what it means to lead with service and purpose.
We are so proud to celebrate their dedication to uplifting Latino medical students, pre-med students, and the communities they serve. Keep inspiring, keep advocating, and keep building bridges. π
