Alianzas' Mission
*******************
Alianzas de Phoenixville’s mission is to promote collaboration among Phoenixville community leaders and volunteers to equip and enhance the Latino/Hispanic Community with improved access to local resources, advocacy and intercultural communication between Latino/Hispanic and the broader community.
What we do
**************
ADVOCACY
Due to language barriers and immigration status, many Latino families in our area live in substandard conditions. Alianzas helps families connect to resources and representation that will hold landlords accountable for fair and decent housing conditions. In the same manner, individuals experiencing unfair labor practices such as withholding pay have a voice and mediator through Alianzas.
MEDIATION
Between local agencies and institutions like that of the Phoenixville Area School District and the Phoenixville Hospital. Due to the lack of bilingual work force, Alianzas is solicited in helping with the processes involving Latinos and the services they offer along with document and policy translations in order to better serve the Latino Community.
WORKSHOPS AND INFORMATIONALS
With partnerships such as the one with Pennsylvania Immigration and Citizenship Coalition, we are able to provide valuable, trusted information and education concerning immigration rights and passage toward legal status, help with the new DACA legislation and the anticipated Drivers Legislation Bill for Undocumented individuals.
HEALTH AND WELLNESS
Established programs such as Penn State Nutrition Links and Strengthening Families Program are brought to Phoenixville in collaboration with the Outreach program to aid in the overall health of the Latino community through healthy eating and Behavioral wellness sessions designed to strengthen families physically, socially and emotionally. In addition, Phoenixville Hospital and a local Hispanic Doctor collaborate in addressing health concerns of the Latino population.
EDUCATION
Our ongoing ESL program headed by certified ESL volunteer teachers and collaboration of the PASD offers Latinos and other nationalities basic conversational English twice a year in 8 session classes. The Read-Aloud Program is offered to parents as they become more proactive in their children’s literacy.
EL PUENTE NEWSLETTER
Our bi-monthly publication keeps the Latino community informed as to the latest resources, programs and events in our local area and aids in bridging the cultural gaps that exist in our community.
Alianzas serves the community through mediation, advocacy, workshops, and more!
