Organizations Filed Purposes:
To advance the wellness and leadership capacity of Latino populations.
The Latino Leadership Council is the only Latino-focused non-profit organization in the region that advocates for Latinos to access culturally and linguistically appropriate services in health, education and youth development. We do this through our mobile network of promotores, or cultural brokers, who provide advocacy and support to families so that they improve their personal situations and become thriving and contributing community members.
Promotores The LLC works with the community, partners and service providers to help remove or lessen obstacles Latinos face in accessing services and supports. Promotores are trained para professional community members who work with families as cultural brokers, assisting them in navigating systems and accessing resources. Through support groups such as Rincn de las Comadres and Superacin Personal, and Parenting groups such as Parent Project, we help adults navigate through the challenges of raising children, support women in acknowledging and addressing personal challenges and help families to improve their family and community relationships.
Through grants from Sutter and Kaiser, the LLC helps Latino adults access health, dental, vision, nutrition and mental health supports and services. Promotores perform home visits; make referrals to health providers; coordinate community-based health screenings; organize wellness classes and programs; and advocate for Latino families who need additional or more advanced medical services. More importantly, promotores help families find a medical home so that they experience improved health and decreased emergency medical treatment resulting from delayed access.
First 5 Placer Healthy children begin with healthy pregnancies. Our prenatal program helps connect women to prenatal care early to ensure that they remain healthy throughout their pregnancies, deliver healthy babies and provide a supportive environment for their children to thrive. We facilitate Mami Y Yo groups with mothers and children to teach age-appropriate behaviors and healthy habits, such as dental care. These groups not only support the healthy development of children but also connect mothers with each other for social supports.
