HFI has hosted two annual Celebrating Latino Health and Culture! events co-sponsored by the Immigration and Health Initiative (IAHI) and made possible by generous funding from the Auxiliary Enterprise Board and the CUNY Graduate Center Doctoral Students Council.

The first event, on April 9, 2008, featured a performance by the Hunter Argentine Tango Club, a book giveaway (Solving Latino Pyschosocial and Health Problems), a film screening (Salud!), as well as information on both LHFI and IAHI. 

The second annual event, held on March 31, 2009 featured an internship/job fair with several community organizations, a film screening (Teen Mothers), and a speech on Latina reproductive health issues by Dr. Iris Lopez followed by a book signing (Matters of Choice).
