The Hispanic Health Council is a research, advocacy and training organization focusing on issues of health, mental health, and education in the Puerto Rican community of Hartford, Connecticut. A key feature of the Council is the teaming relationship which has developed between anthropologists and Puerto Rican/Hispanic community activists. The Hispanic Health Council began in 1976 as the Puerto Rican Health Committee of La Casa de Puerto Rico, then the major Hispanic agency in the city. The Council has grown to become an independent agency with research, training, and advocacy grants from local and national sources
