FUERZA LATINA Claimed

Fuerza Latina is dedicated to empowering and strengthening the Latino community through education, community support and socioeconomic development programs. Our goal is to promote inclusion, equity and access to resources that enable Latinos to reach their full potential. We work in partnership with diverse institutions to provide job training, legal counseling, mental health, and cultural programs that preserve our roots and celebrate our identity.

Our Mission

To empower youth and their families by promoting well-being through Culture, Support Groups and Sports in Vaughan and its surroundings.

Our Vision

A vibrant and inclusive community where Fuerza Latina is a leading provider of services for youth and their families in Vaughan.

Our Journey

The idea was born out of a desire to provide youth with constructive, alternative programs to direct them away from harmful behavior and encourage other youth to embrace a second chance.

Since 2003, the desire becomes a reality as youth from the community gather together as a group, regardless of ethnicity or culture, to learn the value of teamwork, interpersonal relationships and community.
