Adelante has become a leading provider of linguistically appropriate and culturally competent programs for Latinos in Lucas and surrounding counties, and continues to employ passion and creativity in removing barriers to progress for Latinos.

For years, Adelante has seen many neighborhoods struggle to address those barriers, which include language, unmet health-care needs, a lack of financial education, drug and alcohol addiction, domestic violence, high teen-pregnancy rates and low educational attainment. Through partnerships, collaboration and dedication, Adelante provides programs and services that support Latino individuals and families as they work to overcome these challenges and achieve or maintain self-sufficiency, well-being and neighborhood stability.

Because of its dedication to the Latino community in Northwest Ohio, openness in partnering and solid cultural skill set, Adelante has become The Latino Resource Center for businesses, government and individuals in need.
