Hola! I'm working on a Spanish-language summit related to cancer and immunotherapy. Currently I'm doing research and seeking local/community and national organizations (with local affiliations) who educate, work, are connected with the Spanish-language community. I'd greatly appreciate all recommendation.
I'm also seeking Spanish-speaking cancer patients and caretakers who have taken the immunotherapy route and would be open to speaking about that.
