How We Impact the Community

We work hand in hand with our Latino neighbors to promote healthy living, achieve self-sufficiency, and discover opportunities for leadership and community engagement. A vital resource for access to social services, we embody a culture of compassion and trust that provides a non-stigmatized, safe space for clients from all walks of life.

94% of our clients identify as Latino, 75% have an income of less than $30,000, and 63% work in agriculture, so our services are built to meet this community’s needs.  Our impact is substantial in contributing to the overall wellness of the community.

This fiscal year, we served over 2500 clients; amongst those, 381 received rent, food, or emergency assistance; 950 were assisted with general services and referrals; 290 received legal navigation assistance in immigration, labor law issues, or as victims of crimes; and 100 have received mental health assistance.  This leads to a happier, healthier, more economically vibrant community for everyone.

Testimonial

As a single mom, I felt alone and without support. With Puertas Abiertas I feel at ease, and I know that when I have a concern I can always call and get a helpful answer.
