Our HistoryOur Impact
What Makes Us, UsALMA was founded by Adolfo Echveste in 1993. Over the last 30 years we have grown the footprint those of Latino heritage are making in Arizona Healthcare.
Since 1996, ALMA Healthcare has been Arizona’s only coalition dedicated to breaking down barriers for Latino communities in medicine, transforming hundreds of lives through scholarships, mentorship, and career placement from high school through professional practice. The organization has created a vital network where medical professionals collaborate, learn, and grow beyond traditional education while connecting healthcare institutions with bilingual staff and talented students. ALMA’s enduring impact spans nearly three decades of building pathways into healthcare, fostering professional excellence, and ensuring Latino communities have both representation in medicine and access to culturally competent care.
