Our next Hispanic Heritage Month/Estrella Award nominee in our Public/Civil Services category is Daniel Bravo! 🌟

He is the Developmental Disabilities Program Coordinator for the Yakima Health District. As the first born son of immigrant parents, life has always been filed with firsts and unforeseen challenges. One of his greatest challenge's and joys in life has been the opportunity to raise a child with a disability. His oldest daughter has faced many challengers due to a genetic disorder which has in turn made him very passionate about advocacy and support around the world of disability.

His upbringing and cultural experiences have fueled his passion to bring awareness and support to the community. They face many challenges in society and loosing out on access to resources because of fears or misinformation should never be a roadblock. He is truly proud of the work his team has been able to do in Yakima and looks forward to continuing to support his community and thus improve the lives of those with a disability in any way possible weather big or small.
