About This Cause
CPLC was founded in 1969 by a group of community and student activists to confront oppression facing the Latino community in South Central Phoenix. Since then, we have expanded our mission to promote stronger and healthier communities throughout the southwestern United States, including Arizona, Nevada, and New Mexico, impacting more than 300,000 individuals annually. We provide a comprehensive range of bilingual and bi-cultural services in Economic Development, Education, Health & Human Services, and Housing. While our services are offered to all people, regardless of ethnic background, we have a special competence in meeting the needs of the Latino community and have become the most trusted provider of services to Latinos in Arizona. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT We create opportunities for small businesses and neighborhoods to flourish through business lending, commercial development, and financial empowerment. EDUCATION We educate to empower children, youth, and adults, providing Early and Migrant Head Start, charter high schools, youth character and leadership development, academic enrichment programs, scholarships, workforce development, and GED and English classes. HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES We treat the whole person through behavioral health, domestic violence shelter and prevention, emergency assistance, elder services, legal immigration counseling, HIV, individual and family counseling, women’s health, and drug and alcohol rehabilitation and prevention. HOUSING We strengthen communities, offering all types of housing development, property management, neighborhood revitalization, housing counseling, and other pertinent services.
