Latino Community Association
BEND, Ore. (KTVZ) The Latino Community Association has received a $12,000 boost in June from the Cow Creek Umpqua Indian Foundation of Roseburg to support its efforts to equip Central Oregon Latinos with job skills and help finding employment.
LCA’s workforce education program teaches English and computer skills (currently online) and offers one-on-one support to navigate job applicants through setting goals, refining their resumes, applying for jobs or applying for a business license. With this help, workers can gain higher-paying jobs to build wealth and provide better housing, food, and health care for their families.
