Building Community. Advancing Equity. Celebrating Culture.

Evanston Latinos is a community-led organization dedicated to strengthening and uplifting the Latino community in Evanston. We create opportunities for connection, leadership, advocacy, entrepreneurship, and cultural celebration so that Latino families can thrive and contribute fully to the life of our city.

We believe that strong communities are built through relationships. That is why we bring people together through cultural events, community gatherings, leadership development, and initiatives that amplify Latino voices and experiences. We work alongside families, entrepreneurs, community leaders, and partner organizations to create a more connected, equitable, and vibrant Evanston.

From supporting local entrepreneurs and small businesses to preserving and sharing our stories, traditions, and culture, Evanston Latinos serves as a bridge between people, resources, and opportunities. Our work honors the rich contributions of Latino residents while helping build a future where every member of our community feels seen, valued, and empowered.

Together, we are building a stronger Evanston—one that celebrates our culture, invests in our leadership, and creates opportunities for generations to come.
