“I am passionate about Social Justice! There is no true freedom without justice for all people. Despite the fact that we live in a brutal capitalist society we do not have to participate in brutality. We can all look at the systems we are part of and ensure that we are treating each other and ourselves with dignity and fairness. Look out for brutality and reject it on all levels.”
Dr. Jáuregui is a dedicated advocate for older adults and people with disabilities. He founded the Inland Empire Disabilities Collaborative, a partnership among IEHP, Community Access Center, and PossAbilities at Loma Linda University focused on strengthening resources, access, and support for individuals with disabilities throughout the Inland Empire.
