关于我们
At Nuestra Casa, we stand by our community to help navigate institutions, build people power, and use their voice to shape a new, more equitable community. Our programs in East Palo Alto and its surrounding communities build leaders who transform our local community and are actively engaged in our local economy, school district, and civic life. We work hard to build a community that leaves no one behind. Three core strategies inform every program, event, workshop, and advocacy effort we undertake: We partner with Latino families to help them navigate the complicated systems that impact their lives from immigration to social services to health care. Nuestra Casa develops our educational offerings in direct response to the needs of our members—ranging from financial literacy to English classes, from adolescent parenting skills workshops to immigrants’ rights trainings. We support Latino parents to become effective advocates for their children, at home, in local schools, and across the county. Our network of trained Promotoras are community leaders to use their power to build trust with our members and respond to the needs of the community as educators and advocates. We use our collective power to shape policies and programs which can make our community more equitable, prosperous, and healthy. Recent wins include the creation of an Office of Immigrant Affairs for San Mateo County, bringing a banking institution to East Palo Alto as part of a larger campaign to fight pay-day lending practices which harm our community, and launching our Food Recovery program that provides fresh fruit and vegetables to nearly 6,000 residents a month.

One of my biggest points of pride this year will be this project! For the last 9 weeks I have been the facilitator and coach for the Women on The Rise Business Incubator at Nuestra Casa. Last night we graduated 17 Latinas with AMAZING business. I loved supporting this group. At the event they each did a pitch about their business. They were all nervous… and they all out did themselves. My job was to teach them some of the fundamentals of running a business: ?? Marketing strategies ?? Knowing your ideal client ?? Mindset blocks and takings risks ?? Financials and budgeting There business are so diverse and focused on supporting their community, we’ve got: ?? Peruvian Candy ?? Hair Cuts and Styling ?? Skin Care ?? Holistic Therapy ?? Custom T-Shirts ?? Latinx Coffee Shop ?? Dulces Enchilados ?? Low Sugar Desserts ?? Cleaning Services ?? Marketing for Small Businesses ?? Zumba ?? Apartment Rentals ?? Child Care Center ?? Clothing Stores! It's been such fun and a privilege to be a part of building their business. They did such a great job with their pitches that many of them got new clients last night. A core memory from this experience will be witnessing these women take a risk, watch themselves excel at it and see how proud they are of what they are building. They own their leadership! May this remind you to take that risk. It will be scary, build a little safety for yourself, maybe do it in community like these women and then leap! You will witness so much of your greatness. Thank you to Ana Angel Avendano for connecting me to this amazing organization. and BIG thank you to Carmela Meehan for partnering with me and supporting us all. --------------------- ???? Hi I'm a Leadership Coach. I help 1st/2nd gen leaders work less, feel confident, and gain fulfillment without sacrificing their careers. #businessincubator #facilitator #leadershipcoach #LatinaOwnedBusiness
