Our Humble Roots
How we got started
El Programa Hispano’s humble roots began in 1982 when a small group of outreach workers from Catholic Family Services, now Catholic Charities of Oregon (CCO), conducted outreach to Latino migrant farmworkers in East Multnomah County. In 2015, with the support of CCO, El Programa became an independent 501(c)3 organization. Today, we serve more than 20,000 individuals annually in the areas of Economic Sustainability, Education, Community Wellness and UNICA, our Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault prevention, intervention, and advocacy program. Our vision is a thriving Latine Community living to our fullest potential.
Although EPHC is affiliated with the Catholic Charities Network, a candidate or participant does not need to be a Catholic to work with us or to receive services. Across our programs and services, staff of all faiths or none, work within our framework of respect for our mission, a person’s dignity and the common good.
👖💙 Hoy conmemoramos el Día del Denim, un movimiento global para concientizar sobre la violencia sexual y apoyar a las, los y les sobrevivientes.
En El Programa Hispano, nuestro equipo de UNICA se dedica a brindar apoyo confidencial, defensa y recursos para ayudar a las sobrevivientes a sanar y recuperar su poder. No estás sola/o/e, estamos aquí para ti.

💚 This month, we hosted a fantastic educational session on how to read nutrition labels on food packages. It’s an important step in helping our Latine older adults make healthier, more informed food choices. 🫐🥑🥫
