Laura Acero, LCSW-R

Licensed Clinical Social Worker JOINED CCHCI IN 2024 Why I Believe in the Mission of CCHCI

I believe in the mission of CCHCI, “HEALTH FOR ALL” because it means that we do not deny access to health care and/or mental health care to anyone regardless of race, immigration status, sex, gender and/or income. Through the different programs, CCHCI employees work together to improve individuals’ lives. CCHCI promotes a comprehensive approach that allows individual’s personal growth.

Laura'S BACKGROUND

I was born and raised in Colombia, South America with my sister. I moved to United States as a single mother, which inspired me to pursue a higher education to be able to provide a better life to my daughters. I believed that my culture has helped me to reach many of my goals because of the positive outlook instill in me by my grandparents. My ability to overcome the difficulties of learning a new language and the difficulties of being an immigrant have enabled me to be more empathetic and encouraging to people from different walks in life.
