According to the UCLA Latino Policy & Politics Institute, almost half of Latino low-income adults in California face food insecurity and struggle to meet basic needs. Food insecurity is often associated with poor health and a reduced ability to access healthcare. AltaMed Health Services serves a historically underserved community where holiday stress due to financial pressures is prevalent.
The AltaMed Health Services South Gate clinic is located at 8627 Atlantic Ave., South Gate, CA 90280.
