Step Two of L.A.T.I.N.O.

Step Two: Finding Latinos in any given community.

In larger communities, there are often Latino Organizations, and if you are interested in working with the Latino community, developing a relationship with these organizations can be helpful. However, remember that in some cases these organizations are country-specific, so you may have to connect with more than one. In smaller towns, Latino stores, bakeries, or restaurants are where one can find Latinos/Hispanics. Keep in mind that the town may also have specific areas where Latinos may live, especially if undocumented, since that poses obstacles to accessing housing by regular means.
