The Latino Racial Justice Circle (LRJC) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that supports the Latino community in the Baltimore area through programs in education, legal assistance, community dialogues, and advocacy.
The vision of the Latino Racial Justice Circle is to create opportunities throughout Maryland for meaningful, authentic dialogue about race relations with people of different cultures. As a result, the Circle hopes to form cross-cultural, faith based communities focused on spiritual growth and improving social relationships. The Latino Racial Justice Circle stands in solidarity with the Latino Community and will partner with existing faith traditions and social justice programs.
The mission of the Latino Racial Justice Circle is to educate and inspire people of all faith traditions. Working together, we will recognize and then act to eliminate systemic racial injustice and everyday incidents of bias and discrimination toward the Latino community. The Circle is committed to healing the wounds of racism by seeking to understand and respect one another. The Circle also strives to change human behavior that we might change the human heart.
