Description:

The mission of the Latin American Association (LAA) is to empower Latinos to adapt, integrate and thrive. Our vision is ‘Opportunity for All.’

Founded in 1972, the LAA has grown over the past four decades to become the region’s leading agency representing Georgia’s Latino issues. The LAA offers a targeted menu of direct services that helps Latino individuals assimilate and become contributing members of Georgia’s community.

The LAA achieves its mission through five (5) focus areas: Civic Engagement & Advocacy, Economic Empowerment, Youth Services, Family Stabilization & Well-Being, and Immigration Services. Each focus area includes a targeted menu of direct services, large-scale events and advocacy to realize significant community impact and affect systems level change.

The Latin American Association (LAA) envisions to provide “Opportunity for all” in Georgia and beyond beginning with our own staff. Diversity, equity, and inclusion is the core of who we are and the work we do every day. We listen to and engage our staff and community to foster a sense of belonging among our team and empower them to do their best always and empower our clients and the community.
