Beginning in 2014 after the successful Encuesta Buenos Vecinos, community-health research project, we began Buenos Vecinos to formally address inequities throughout Latinx communities across Washtenaw County. We are a mission driven organization and support our community members through providing resources that address various difficulties around healthcare accessibility, educational opportunities, food supply, to navigating language barriers and immigration processes and housing and financial instability. Our mission is about promoting resilience throughout the Latinx community both within our organization and throughout the broader communities we serve. We hope to grow as a supportive social network through our leadership, continued growth in building communal relationships, and establishing trust between the communities we serve, our organization and broader Washtenaw County.
Supporting individual well-being, fostering community empowerment and connection, advocating for systems that promote equity and inclusion, and actively engaging Latinx students to ensure they have the support they need to thrive.
We envision a Washtenaw County where resilient Latinx leadership flourishes, fostering powerful connections and community empowerment. We envision equitable systems and ensure that everyone has the resources they need to thrive.
