Abstract
Health promotion programs for Latinos can play a key role in increasing their awareness and early detection of prevalent diseases. However, these programs must integrate cultural factors and also recognize the significant diversity among Latinos. Thus, the current article provides practitioners with an understanding of health promotion for Latinos by building upon the work of Elder, Ayala, Parra-Medina, and Talavera (2009). Relevant pathways and future directions for health promotion for Latinos are also discussed.
