拉丁裔社区发展机构：通过教育、领导、服务和宣传赋予拉丁裔社区权力
拉丁裔社区是美国发展最快的族群之一。然而，尽管拉丁美洲人对美国社会做出了重大贡献，但他们仍然面临许多挑战，例如贫困、歧视、缺乏接受教育和医疗保健的机会。这就是拉丁裔社区发展机构 (LCDA) 的用武之地 - 一个非营利组织，旨在通过教育、领导力发展、服务和宣传来改善拉丁裔的生活质量。
LCDA 于 1972 年由一群关心此事的公民创立，他们认为需要一个组织来满足圣安东尼奥和贝克萨尔县拉丁美洲人的独特需求，LCDA 现已发展成为一个领先的社区组织，每年为超过 10,000 人提供服务。该机构的使命是通过为拉丁美洲人提供学习新技能、培养领导能力和获取资源的机会来帮助他们充分发挥潜力，从而赋予他们权力。
教育是 LCDA 工作的核心。该机构提供一系列教育计划，旨在满足不同年龄组和技能水平的需求。例如：
- 幼儿教育：LCDA 运营着多个启蒙中心，为低收入家庭提供高质量的幼儿教育服务。
- 青年计划：LCDA 为中学生提供课后计划，为高中生提供大学准备计划。
- 成人教育：LCDA 提供成人扫盲课程以及计算机技能培训和英语语言教学等职业培训课程。
除了教育计划，LCDA 还提供一系列旨在满足基本需求的服务，例如食品援助（通过其食品储藏室）、住房援助（通过其住房咨询计划）和医疗保健转介（通过其健康导航计划）。
领导力发展是 LCDA 的另一个重点关注领域。该机构认为，赋予个人领导技能不仅有利于他们个人，而且还能加强整个社区。为此，LCDA 提供各种领导力发展机会，例如：
- Youth Leadership Academy：一个暑期项目，旨在通过公开演讲和团队建设等主题的研讨会帮助年轻人培养领导技能。
- Parent Leadership Institute：该计划旨在通过教导家长如何有效地倡导，帮助他们更多地参与孩子的学校。
- 董事会培训计划：专为希望在非营利组织董事会任职但缺乏董事会治理经验或知识的个人设计的课程。
宣传也是 LCDA 工作的重要组成部分。该机构通过倡导促进公平和正义的政策，在地方和国家层面代表拉丁美洲人孜孜不倦地工作。一些例子包括：
- 移民改革：作为一个移民主导的组织，它本身在德克萨斯州的移民社区中有着深厚的根基；它强烈反对反移民政策，同时推动全面的移民改革措施
- 选民参与和公民参与：它通过选民登记活动、开展投票活动、候选人论坛等鼓励拉丁裔选民的公民参与
总体而言，LCDA 在改善圣安东尼奥拉丁社区的成果方面发挥了重要作用。其解决拉丁裔家庭所面临问题的整体方法使其成为德克萨斯州独一无二的组织。在捐助者、志愿者和合作伙伴的持续支持下；它可以继续朝着在圣安东尼奥的拉丁裔人口中创造公平的机会和成果迈进
