About ALCREJ

American Latino Center for Research, Education & Justice (ALCREJ) is a 501c3 non-profit organization providing opportunities for low income children and families.




ALCREJ's mission is to advance the American Latino Experience through a comprehensive approach of education, cultural arts, justice and economic development.




ALCREJ's vision is to work with children and families of under-served communities so that they will have equal opportunity for realizing their full potential and living the American dream.




ALCREJ is committed to the betterment of the Latino community by creating opportunities for our new generation.

American Latino Center for Research, Education & Justice (ALCREJ) is committed to improving the Latino experience in the U.S. by increasing opportunities for greater success in the areas of education, health, workforce and business development, and by focusing more on strengthening of the family.




Our organization is based on the belief that every child and every family has the right to a good education, a decent job, to owning their own home and to living their American dream.




ALCREJ is committed to opening the door of opportunity to every child and every family by focusing and challenging the status quo and the systems that are in place which have made fairness, equity and justice an impossible dream for so many of our community. While much progress has been made in the last forty years, much more remains to be done, ALCREJ's goal is to balance the scales of justice so that every child will come to realize their full potential. ALCREJ will focus on our most vulnerable and high risk youth and families where the greatest need exists for more opportunity and greater success.




ALCREJ believes that every child can and must succeed. ALCREJ and those individuals and organizations with whom we collaborate will make the difference. Today there remain too many children and families living in the vicious cycle of poverty where poor living conditions, lack of good nutrition, crime and delinquency abound. Unless major change occurs, these conditions will not be eradicated. ALCREJ's belief is that we can make a difference and working collaboratively with others will greatly enhance our efforts and impact. If you are in a position to help with this most worthy cause, be a part of the renaissance to make a real difference in the lives of those most vulnerable and join ALCREJ as a volunteer and/or make a financial contribution towards this effort.
