About Us

Dear Friends,

 

It is with heartfelt gratitude and a deep sense of purpose that I welcome you to Centro Union. Since the very beginning, our mission has been clear: to serve our Hispanic communities with compassion, respect, and culturally relevant support. We believe every person deserves access to education, health resources, and opportunities to thrive regardless of where they come from or the challenges they face.

 

 I have seen firsthand the barriers our community faces in accessing essential services. I knew we needed a place that not only offered help, but also truly understood the unique needs of our people—a place rooted in trust, empowerment, and faith in God.

 

At Centro Union, we believe in the power of God’s love to transform lives and communities. We are inspired by the words of Proverbs 3:5-6: “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.” This scripture guides our work and reminds us that with God, all things are possible.

 

Today, Centro Union is more than a resource center; it is a family. Our dedicated team works tirelessly to provide bilingual programs, health education, support groups, and advocacy that strengthen our community. 

 

We are also blessed with an amazing Board of Directors whose diverse professional backgrounds bring invaluable expertise, wisdom, and passion to our mission. Their leadership helps guide Centro Union with integrity and vision as we continue to grow and serve.

 

Thank you for being part of this journey. Whether you are here to seek support, volunteer, or partner with us, know that you are welcome and valued. Let us continue to stand together, uplift one another, and create a community where everyone can flourish under God’s grace.

 

With deepest appreciation,

 

Dora Sanchez-Hernandez
