Virus among Hispanics spurs student
ASHLEY SLOBODA | The Journal Gazette
Trine University student Nikolaos Rivera was inspired last summer by the issues he saw the Hispanic Leadership Coalition of Northeast Indiana address.
It fielded more requests for financial assistance, and it worked to educate its community about the importance of seeking medical treatment and following social distancing guidelines, according to a university news release.
That experience prompted Rivera, a coalition board member, to focus his honors research project on the coronavirus s effect on the region s Hispanic and Latino communities, the release said.
“I felt that the problems being tackled by the Hispanic and Latino communities were unique and nuanced among the general population,” Rivera said in a statement.
