We can reestablish that heartshaped look of youth with Face and Neck Lift with Smartlipo. This procedure combines a face and neck lift with laser liposuction along the jawline and neck using Smartlipo technology.

In a younger face, we typically see the heart-shape or V-shape look of youth. With age, gravity, and loss of skin elasticity, we can observe the stigmata of old age: nasolabial and marionette lines, jowl formation, and a turkey gobbler neck.

With today’s modern technology, you can truly look on the outside the way you feel on the inside. Call for your free consultation with Dr. Serra to find out if Face and Neck Lift with Smartlipo is right for A New You!

Nunez never dreamed he’d come up empty handed when he tried to post a job opening for a bilingual Spanish speaking person from the community.

The collaboration produced Hispanics of Lake County Association, a non-pro t that was chartered in August 2022.

The organization serves as the resource center for Hispanics in Lake County through workforce development, humanitarian outreach and multicultural awareness.

Here’s how Hispanics of Lake County intends to reach its three primary goals:

• Workforce development

To provide Hispanics with skills and talents by holding job fairs, o ering resume workshops, and providing English classes.

• Humanitarian outreach

Roland, who was serving as director of educational opportunity programs at Lake-Sumter State College at the time, discovered there was no network to connect the Spanishspeaking community.

“We saw a lot of ‘help wanted’ signs, and we wanted to get these Spanishspeaking individuals connected to the right resources and help give them the skills they need,” Roland says. He promptly got working with some of his peers to ll the void.

The organization is looking to address issues such as health and wellness, translation services, legal aid, and healthcare. Also, to connect various groups to address food insecurity in the community.

• Multicultural awareness

Promoting Hispanic-owned businesses and educating the community about di erent countries and their cultures to promote and celebrate the diverse cultures represented in Lake County, including the Hispanic community. The organization plans to collaborate with the Clermont community at the annual Sips and Salsa event, as well as host its own Hispanic Heritage Celebration.

The organization is countywide, with members representing the United States, Puerto Rico, Mexico and Brazil.

“We want to break the barrier and make everyone feel included,” Roland says. “We will o er English classes and Spanish classes for English-to-Spanish learners. Our goal is not just to serve the Hispanic community, but to connect everyone and encourage employers to get involved all over the county.”

The organization has held several events, including a kick-o a air in Groveland and a bilingual college and career fair in Leesburg. A breakfast series is planned that will highlight various business owners and leaders in the community.

Hispanics of Lake County Association’s ve-year plan to grow the organization includes building a center where people can get connected to resources they need. The center will also house a consignment shop o ering authentic goods from other countries.

“Our board is excited, and we have reached out to people who have a passion for making a di erence,” Roland says. “We are looking for people who can roll up their sleeves and help out and share the message.”
