This past weekend, I had the honor of attending the Latinos Unidos Conference: Unidos Venceremos, organized by PODER of Idaho. It was more than a gathering—it was a powerful reminder of what it means to show up for one another, to learn in community, and to build toward justice with intention and heart.

This week, I had the privilege of participating in the Andrus Center for Public Policy’s Women and Leadership Conference, held September 23–24, 2025, at Boise State University. I am deeply grateful to the American Association of University Women for their support, which made it possible for me to attend, engage, and grow.

This past Saturday marked a beautiful milestone for Libélula Primary Care and our Boise community: the first-ever Walk with a Doc Boise. Under clear skies and ideal fall weather, a small but mighty group gathered at Shoreline Park to walk, talk, and connect—united by a shared commitment to health and belonging.

Hispanic Heritage Month (Sept 15–Oct 15) honors Latinx cultures, histories, and independence. From César Chávez to Celia Cruz, we celebrate unity, resilience, and joy. Join us Sept 20 at Shoreline Park for Walk with a Doc—because life is a carnaval.

Walk with a Doc is an international non-profit organization whose mission is to inspire communities through movement and conversation. The Walk is open to the community. Participation is free and pre-registration is not required. Walkers will enjoy a refreshing and rejuvenating walk with Dr. Sarai Ambert-Pompey and other healthcare professionals, who will provide support to participants and answer questions during the walk.   Shoreline Park September 20th Saturday at 9:15am t
