Familias en Acción

Mission

Familias en Acción's mission is to advance Latiné health and wellness through education, supportive services, and programs that uplift community wisdom and strength.

Bottom Line

At Familias en Acción (Familias), we envision a future that values our culture in the pursuit of health justice. We support Latiné communities to not only survive, but thrive through our culturally specific health promotion programs. We build families’ resilience around various health education topics, bridge gaps in care through healthcare navigation, and provide workforce development for Latiné Community Health Workers. During a time when our community is being consistently othered, Familias values the culture, language and customs, all while working towards health justice.
