Nueva Luz Urban Resource Center sees the end to the vicious cycle of poverty that keeps many of the residents of Cleveland’s Latino Community as well as all citizens in the west side neighborhoods locked into inadequate housing and low-income employment.
We see an increase in education that enables individuals with lowered self-esteem to rise up out of the spiral of drug abuse, commercial sex work and the legal entanglements that go along with these activities.
Nueva Luz Urban Resource Center, in collaboration with other programs on Cleveland’s west side, seeks to change this reality by providing compassionate outreach and service provision regardless of the individual’s race, ethnicity, sexual orientation or religious affiliation.
