History
Chicano Federation was established in 1969 by a group of civil rights advocates. For the first 20 years the organization worked as an advocate for Latino recognition, challenging Latino stereotyping, defending neighborhoods and culture, and promoting voter registration and civic participation.
The Federation was successful in many important policy decisions, resulting in changes in local attitudes and policies.
By the 1990's, The Chicano Federation expanded its mission to create empowering opportunities for our community. During this time, housing, childcare and senior services initiatives came to fruition.
Today, the Chicano Federation has a budget of over $19 million, and serves more than 10,000 people a year, close to 8,000 of them children enrolled in child education and nutrition programs.
More recently, CF added a Health component to its programs when it was awarded a federal grant for HIV/ AIDS research and outreach. In 2010, the organization "adopted" La Cuna, a foster care program that serves infants and toddlers who need safe and loving homes.
