college experience and transition to four-year universities and health professional programs. The goal of the conference is to inform, encourage, and motivate students to improve the Latino physician supply. While the overall supply of Latino physicians will
increase by nearly 30% by 2020, that growth will be dwarfed by the 74% growth in the Latino population over the same time. Increasing the Latino physician supply is critical for meeting the demand of the growing Latino population in California.</span><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
