“One of the impacts of the pandemic on the Latinx Community is the psychological trauma many have endured due to isolation because of the isolation from their friends, a lack of job security or losing a loved one. The Latinx community has faced numerous hills as a result of the world stopping, but one challenge that continues to grow steeper is addressing mental health.” –Oscar Lopez, Al Dia News
