We are dedicated to inspiring Latinos to participate, lead, and empower themselves as leaders in their community.
Through our courses, students will delve into the significance of community involvement, exploring topics such as volunteering, serving on Boards and Committees, and discovering various avenues to actively contribute. Our curriculum emphasizes the importance of being actively involved in the electoral process at every level of government. We believe that informed and engaged citizens are the backbone of a thriving community.
Our first course is designed to educate students on different aspects of being Latino, Hispanic, or Latin American. This course aims to provide the information for the students to make their own conclusions as to their identity.
Our financial literacy course is crafted to empower young adults and adolescents as they embark on the journey into adulthood. Beyond just covering the basics, we delve into the meaning and profound importance of maintaining healthy credit. Students will gain practical insights into creating and maintaining generational wealth.
Our program provides students with invaluable tools for planning their future academically and life after adulthood. Students will dive into practical skills, including resume building, job shadowing experiences, and the art of navigating scholarships. We understand the importance of demystifying the application process to educational institutes, and our program is designed to equip students with the knowledge and confidence needed for this significant step.
We have proudly formed partnerships with colleges and universities to offer invaluable work experience opportunities for students as they pursue higher education. Through these collaborations, students gain hands-on experience in their fields of study, preparing them for the professional world while enriching their academic journey. Our commitment to bridging academia and practical application ensures that students excel in their studies and emerge well-equipped for the challenges of their future careers.
