Proud Advocates of The Latinx Community
The Latinx community is embedded in every part of our organization's identity. They are the reason why we were founded, they constitute a fundamental part of our mission and vision, and are integrated into our everyday culture. We proudly advocate for the Hispanics in the Morris County area and beyond through every aspect of our work, from education to legal immigration, and everything in between.
Providing Access To Critical Resources
Having access to the right resources can be a determinant in someone's life. Throughout our different departments, we provide the Latinx community with the critical resources they need in order to succeed, from ensuring they are able to meet their basic needs to guiding them into bettering themselves and achieving their ultimate goals.
Advocating For Education
At MCOHA, we believe that education is detrimental to the development of individuals' lives. We offer individual tutoring to children, citizenship classes, community forums, assistance in obtaining admission into higher education institutions, citizenship classes, and referral to partner academic programs that offer ESL classes as well as academic degrees. We are committed to helping the Latinx community get access to the education they need to succeed.
Empowering Through Representation That Matters
An important part of advocating for the Latinx Community is teaching them to be unapologetically proud of our rich and diverse heritage. That is why make sure to lead by example and infuse our culture into everything we do.
Helping Them Achieve Their Immigration Goals
Our expert immigration attorneys work tirelessly every day to help Latinx immigrants individuals and families achieve their goals of becoming legalized and ultimately citizens of this country. Through our low-cost immigration services, they have access to high-quality legal representation from accredited attorneys that work with them and guide them through their entire process.
