About El Paso, TX

Mexican nationals comprise a large percentage of the population of El Paso. As a result, about ninety-five percent of Maternidad La Luz's clients are primarily Spanish speaking.

Maternidad La Luz is able to provide low cost, high quality care for all pregnant women in the community, regardless of nationality or residency status.
