About

Guerreras Latinas is a Latina-founded nonprofit in East Portland that empowers Spanish-speaking Latina women through peer mentorship, leadership development, workshops, and connection to community resources. It also provides domestic violence and sexual assault advocacy, plus programs like Sembradoras (free culturally specific food) and Saber Es Poder (family engagement in schools). The group removes barriers by offering childcare, hot meals, and transportation support.
