Entrepreneur & Small Business Support

Latinos are the fastest growing group of entrepreneurs, and Hispanic-owned businesses are a major driver of economic growth in our region.

We provide language-accessible training to small business owners in areas such as tax preparation, financial management, and business planning, in partnership with local organizations, to ensure that business owners have the tools to achieve their dreams.

COVID-19 Help

Latinos are one of the hardest hit demographics by the Covid-19 pandemic, yet face many barriers to accessing medical care, vaccines and economic safety net programs.

HOLA provides life-saving COVID support to Latino families and workers, minimizing illness and death. We provided Covid support to over 1,200 families in 2021.

This includes::

Access to medical care
Vaccine appointments and education
Covid testing
Grocery assistance
Economic support for those experiencing financial hardship

We assist individuals and families with a wide range of issues that impact their lives, including civil rights, workplace issues, direct needs assistance, and access to community resources.
