no one is left behind

As a community center founded on community empowerment and dedicated to supporting youth and their families, we are deeply familiar with vulnerability. In times of uncertainty, the future may be unclear, but one thing remains constant: we have each other. The strength of our Latino and immigrant community is rooted in a shared history, a collective struggle, and an unshakable sense of solidarity. Whether navigating the challenges of immigration, enduring the hardships and losses brought on by a global pandemic, or confronting the divisive rhetoric that threatens our safety, we place our trust in the power of our collective resilience. Together, we rise—united by our ability to come together in times of need, always moving forward with hope, determination, and an unwavering belief in one another.

No one in our community will face challenges alone. We are committed to ensuring that everyone receives the support they need, whether that’s connecting individuals with food resources, legal assistance, emotional support, or simply offering a kind word. In solidarity, we stand together. 

Call us today to connect with our Social Service Coordinators and learn more about the resources and programs available at La Casa de Amistad. We offer services such as city resident I.D. cards, legal services, a driver safety simulator, citizenship classes, digital assistance, and access to additional bilingual social services, health resources, and community education. We are here to help you access the support you need! 

We believe one way to face adversity is to be prepared. By educating ourselves and understanding our rights, we can prevent harm before it arrives. If you have concerns about your rights or need guidance on important documents—such as letters of attorney for guardianship or securing your family’s estate—please don’t hesitate to contact us. Planning ahead is power. It allows us to create a foundation of security and safety for our families.

Our strength lies in looking out for one another. If you’re seeking to join a network of mutual aid—where we share information, raise awareness, and take coordinated action to protect and empower our community—please reach out to Dara Marquez at [email protected].
