Our Mission: To Serve. To Educate. To Advocate
The Hispanic Center of Western Michigan is a non-profit organization serving the needs of the Hispanic and broader community. We strive to provide an avenue for education and openness to promote discussion of the distinctions and values of different nationalities and cultures. The Center also focuses on the common thread that unites all people: a desire for understanding and respect of our differences. We believe that this shared human experience connects us all.
Since 1978, the Hispanic Center has offered the services that individuals and families in the community have needed to help them achieve self-sufficiency. At the basis of our success is a bilingual and bicultural staff that enables us to provide a culturally competent and responsive setting for our Spanish-speaking clients. Minimizing the misunderstandings among different cultures allows for a more open dialogue and effective communication.
