Unidos Bridging Community Details
Unidos Bridging Community (Unidos) is a non-profit organization founded in 2012 in Yamhill County, Oregon. Its mission is to 1) advocate for Latinx individuals and families, especially first or second-generation immigrants, and 2) to build bridges of understanding and support among Latinx and non-Latinx residents in Yamhill County. Latinx residents currently represent 16% of the county, though this number is increasing at a high rate, reflected by a 20-33% Latinx population in many schools. We envision a time when our broader community shall fully value the contributions of immigrants, celebrate the rich cultures and life histories of all its residents, and recognize the strengths and benefits of a diverse and inclusive community. Our goal is that Latinx individuals and families are fully engaged participants in all aspects of the community, with health and safety outcomes, educational and employment advancement, housing opportunities, and economic well-being reflective of the entire community.We work to achieve our mission through education, policy advocacy, leadership development, and immigration support. We value strong collaboration with other community organizations, and seek to promote "intentional shared relationships" where individuals from different backgrounds can get to know each other.Unidos has an all-volunteer Board of Directors, and most of our work is accomplished by volunteers.
