About us
We are UnidosUS, the largest national Latino civil rights and advocacy organization in the United States, formerly known as the National Council of La Raza (NCLR). Our mission is to build a stronger America by creating opportunities for the Latino community. To achieve this, we conduct applied research, policy analysis, and advocacy, providing a Latino perspective in key areas such as civil rights and immigration, education, health, housing & financial empowerment, racial equity, voting & political empowerment, and workforce development. Through #AffiliatesUnidos, our network of affiliated community-based organizations (CBOs), we reach millions of Latinos each year across the United States and Puerto Rico. We provide our Affiliates with capacity-building assistance to improve their work at the state and local level to advance opportunities for individuals and families.

Are you wondering how Latinos are doing financially after the pandemic? While economic gains were achieved in our community, the high costs of living and lack of federal investments may hinder all the progress made. Take a look at what we found in our new economic report “From the Pandemic to the Present: Forging a Path from Recovery to Prosperity” #UnidosUS

Last week in Las Vegas we gathered more than two-dozen leaders from The White House Hispanic Initiative, Domestic Policy Council, U.S. Department of Education, Affiliates from our network, and area colleges to discuss the impact of Hispanic Serving Institutions (HSIs) and how they can be empowered to strengthen educational pathways and increase economic mobility for more Latino students. HSI’s are drivers of economic mobility for Hispanic students, but educational investments in them have not kept pace with the growing Latino student population. A new Biden-Harris administration executive order establishes a commission to ensure Latino student success through critical investments in HSIs aligned with our goal of doubling the number of Latino college graduates by 2040. #UnidosUS24 #AffiliatesUnidos
