Mental Health and Aliento

May is mental health month! I had the opportunity to sit down this month with Ilieana Salinas from Aliento. Aliento is an organization that helps undocumented, immigrant families to transform their pain into hope. They provide education, advocacy, leadership and civic engagement. During our talk we discussed why we, as Latinos, don't always seek services. We discussed barriers, stigma, and messages of hope.
