2017 Annual Report Celebrating 45 Years

STANDING STRONG TOGETHER

Querid@s Amig@s/Dear Friends,

Throughout 2017, you were there for your community. You demanded justice during the travel ban, immigration restrictions, DACA repeal, and more. You volunteered during Know Your Rights Trainings and Emergency Safety Planning, and with your support we became a "sensitive location."

We are so appreciative to have 24,846 hours of service done by 1,198 volunteers who have given their time to support their community. Together we served 14,506 individuals and 8,246 families in our 49 programs and services, and hope to expand our reach in the coming year.

You helped us celebrate our 45th anniversary this year. On October 11, 1972 the occupation of the abandoned Beacon Hill School began and El Centro de was born. Since then, you have worked with us to support our immigrant community, propel youth to bright futures, help people acheive their dreams, and so much more.

In this time of anti-immigrant darkness, our light shines even brighter. We will continue to protect and serve our immigrant community, and will remain a sensitive location for our families to receive information and resources in a safe and welcoming space. This is a continuation of our fight for justice, and we will continue to resist as we always have: by standing together.

Together, we will not be defeated. Mil gracias for your support and involvement in our "Beloved Community." Together we can organize, empower, and defend our most vulnerable and marginalized populations. Thank you once again for all the ways you fight for justice.

Respetuosamente/Respectfully,

Estela Ortega Juan Cotto Executive Director Board President We provide...

For two weeks during February 2017, we worked together to serve over 300 members of our community through Emergency Safety Planning. These one-on-one sessions covered Know Your Rights training and provided assistance with legal paperwork. Thanks to the support of our community, we are now able to provide ongoing Emergency Safety Planning in 2018.

Call (206) 717-0089 or email [email protected] in order to make an appointment to create a plan for your children and assets in case you are de- tained or deported by immigration authorities.

You also helped us declare ourselves a “sensitive location” for purposes of immigration enforcement policy. Like other sensitive locations, we expect federal authorities not to conduct immigration enforcement activities on any of our properties. NUESTRA COMUNIDAD

L ast summer Marílu, a single mother of two children, came to the Parent-Child Home Program looking for help with her 2-year- old son, Jossue. Jossue was impatient and unwilling to do many activities, including sit through stories.

Using books and educational toys, Marílu and her son received twice-weekly visits from our staff in the Parent-Child Home Program to best support Jossue's development. The program provides new parents with information about child development, health, and education in order to increase parenting skills and improve the child's life outcomes.

Six months later, Marílu is amazed at Jossue's progress! They now enjoy reading and acting out books together, and Jossue is asking questions, taking turns, and appreciates listening to stories! They will continue with their second year and graduate the program in June 2018. We are very excited that the program will be doubling from 35 families to 70 in 2018, and expanding into South King County!

I gnacio* left his mother in Guatemala in pursuit of his dream to be- come an electrical engineer. He has been an extremely hard worker, joining the workforce at age 12 to support his mother, and maintain- ing a high G.P.A. in school. On top of work and school, Ignancio has taken ESL courses at El Centro de la Raza, been a part of our Hope for Youth program, and volunteered for the food bank and youth programs here.

After learning more about social justice and community engagement in our youth programs, he now hopes to combine his interest in electrical engineering with civic engagement. He will now be one of just 24 students from around the country to participate in Citizen University's 2018 Youth Collaboratory, an unique and exiting oppor- tunity to gain skills for future involvement with civic engagement! Gracias to Eric Liu, founder of Citizen University, for making these opportunities possible. *name changed for privacy Above: Child plays on the playground outside El Centro de la Raza.

"I believe in community and friends, and we have to stick together if we want to make a change in the world. Every time I come here I am treated like family. You make people feel like humans instead of second-class citizens." -Jack, Food Bank Participant YOUR IMPACT

A fter the 2016 presidential election, Luke was motivated to share his skills in coding to help others. He got involved the Young Adults in Tech program, which teaches young adults who are out of school and out of work technology skills, and started teaching HTML for the program. “Somebody who doesn’t fit that geeky white guy stereotype and who didn’t have a ‘plain’ peaceful childhood has a lot of challenges and a higher hill to climb to get into the tech field.” -Luke

Young Adults in Tech tackles this problem head-on by teach- ing young adults who are out of school and out of work technology skills that will allow them to transition into the workforce!

Services like our Free Legal Clinics, in partnership with Schroeter Goldmark and Bender, the Latina/o Bar Association of , and the King County Bar Association would not have been possible without the help of 103 volunteers who helped provide nearly 600 hours of translation and legal services.
