Mental health: The new norm
“Mental health: The new norm” by Elizabeth Ayala and Héctor Ayala, who are in charge of Hispanic Community Counseling Services, a Latino-operated outpatient agency that provides personal and family mental and behavioral health intervention services, and has become more relevant since the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the pandemic for COVID-19.

Since then, personal, work and family habits have changed for many, causing anxiety and depression, without them knowing how to identify them, much less manage them.
Each presentation provided alternative points of view on these increasingly important and current topics. Attendees enjoyed the experts and question and answer sessions. At the same time, recreational activities such as fitness classes, tasting of Goya Foods products, free COVID-19 tests and contests were held.
These activities were made possible thanks to the support of Goya Foods, Aurora Latino Home Care, Concilio Philadelphia, RDS Home Care, Hispanic Community Counseling Services and El Sol Latino Newspaper.
