"Latinas account for approximately one in every seven U.S. women of reproductive age. Although several national organizations and numerous local groups are dedicated to improving Latino health, significant gaps exist in the breadth and depth of information available on Latina sexual and reproductive health." (PERSPECTIVES ON SEXUAL AND REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH) This article presents priorities set by The Alan Guttmacher Institute and the Latino Issues Forum to "strengthen sexual and reproductive health information and services for Latinas" and examines the overall goal to "call attention to the issues involved in providing quality health care to all minority groups."
