Goals for a strong community

Create Economic Vitality

Advocate for equitable opportunities for Latinos to access untapped labor and housing markets. Increase access for youth and adults to employment pipelines, post secondary education, career planning and skill training opportunities that result in sustainable employment. Likewise, CLUES will focus its efforts in homeownership by eliminating barriers, providing access to cash and credit, and helping Latino families become knowledgeable consumers.

Promote Cultural and Civic Engagement

Help to reduce disparities and advance equity through programmatic responses that are centered on Latino family values and social and economic factors and conditions. Through data collection, broader partnerships and increased public policy promotion, CLUES will focus on addressing institutional barriers, policies and opportunities that can improve health, education and economic disparities.
