Description

Dr. Jennifer Shedden, with Genentech, reached out to the Bonnell Foundation to see if we were interested in raising awareness about cystic fibrosis in the Hispanic community, and the non CF community. The Bonnell Foundation said "YES".  

In this podcast we talk about all the barriers that people of color face when trying to get diagnosed, and we focus on challenges the Hispanic community.  We now have a page on our website called CF Familia that is in both English and Spanish. There is information about CF, offers resources and CF stories from the Hispanic community.  Lets dive right into the subject now.
