Discussion• The Hispanic population is scattered
throughout the area with little or no data collected beyond some basis census and health information, and even those figures are incomplete, controversial, or questionable.
• What measures should be taken to better assess the situation? Whose responsibility should it become (i.e., Health Dept. or City)?
• What can your agency or program do?

• Knowing the wide range of intragroup diversity, is it appropriate to consider and document acculturation and SES among Hispanics?
