NUESTRO EQUIPO

Desde 1981, El Concilio ha ayudado a latinos a acceder a oportunidades económicas, de educación, salud y bienestar. No podríamos haberlo hecho sin la creatividad y profesionalismo de nuestro equipo, la columna vertebral de nuestra organización. Con liderazgo valiente, compasión e innovación, sentamos las bases de nuestros esfuerzos para aumentar la resiliencia de nuestras comunidades.
