Whether we are helping Latinos build their financial literacy, explore new workforce opportunities, become environmental stewards or advocate for one’s health, trust and a commitment to equity is at the core of everything we do. Our initiatives, programs and grassroots outreach efforts are aimed at empowering and inspiring individuals to improve themselves and their families and, in turn, strengthen their communities and their country.
Hispanic Access Foundation connects Latinos to opportunity by exposing them to reliable and relevant resources, promoting civic engagement and serving as their trustworthy partner. We have developed extensive, trust-based community networks, including those in communities that are the hardest to reach, that when combined with our robust technology, operations, media and communications platforms guarantees success.
Our ability to cultivate leaders and develop advocates and connect them with our partners ensures long-term successes and systemic change.
Establishing Access
Breaking down barriers, opening doors and clearing the path — Hispanic Access Foundation makes establishing access a top priority. From connecting communities with issue experts and decision-makers to providing firsthand experiences, information, resources and even job opportunities, Hispanic Access helps Latinos throughout the nation access opportunities that help improve their lives, communities and the nation as a whole. For example, our MANO Project provides young Latino professionals with access to internship and fellowship opportunities with various government agencies across the country. |
Not only does Hispanic Access look to develop the skills and capacity of Latinos in order to cultivate their leadership, we also support the rise of their profile and influence as leaders. By providing trainings, information and support, we expose leaders to opportunities that strengthen their capabilities and help position them to have a lasting impact on their communities. For example, our Hispanic Leadership Network provides pastors with an intensive, customized program of leadership training and reflection to better prepare them to lead initiatives and church programs that enhance the vitality of their congregations and serve the unique needs of multigenerational Latino communities. |
