Encuentro NM

Encuentro’s mission is to transform New Mexico into a thriving community for ALL of its residents. We do this by engaging Latino immigrant families in educational opportunities that build skills for economic and social justice.

Encuentro’s mission is based upon a commitment to the belief that quality education should build both individual and community knowledge, and that with that knowledge comes individual and community power. For Latino immigrants in the United States today, the importance of this belief cannot be understated, as immigrants and their families are increasingly struggling in the face of rampant social, political and economic injustice.
