Historia
Cómo Llegamos AquíTres Décadas de Trabajo Transformativo
Fundada en 1993, ALMA nació de una verdad simple: el cambio no ocurre por accidente—requiere visión, persistencia y compromiso incansable. Durante tres décadas, hemos hecho el trabajo difícil de construir una coalición que no existía, crear caminos donde solo había muros y transformar la atención médica de Arizona una beca, un mentor, una carrera a la vez. Requirió todo. Valió la pena todo.
