The program opens with a focus on overdose prevention, featuring Mirna Chamorro from the Seminol County Department of Health, who explains the signs of opioid overdose and the life-saving role of naloxone (Narcan), emphasizing its accessibility through local health departments and emergency services. The conversation shifts to Alzheimer’s disease, with David Cazares from USF Health’s Bird Alzheimer Institute discussing the groundbreaking AHEAD Study, a prevention-focused clinical trial targeting adults aged 55–80 without symptoms, particularly urging Hispanic participation to address health disparities. The episode then highlights systemic challenges in early childhood education and infant care, with Raquel Pérez of the Early Learning Share Services Alliance revealing a national crisis in access to quality care due to underfunded programs, low provider pay, and unaffordable costs. The segment concludes with a celebration of community volunteerism, spotlighting Florida Power & Light’s annual Power to Care initiative, where over 750 employees supported local causes through food packaging, beach cleanups, and home renovations. Finally, Chef Gustavo shares traditional Easter recipes for Pascua, including bacalao dishes, lamb chops, and a coquito pie, promoting Goya’s 90th anniversary and its community donations.
