Downtown in Northwest Washington in Washington, District of Columbia — The American Northeast (Mid-Atlantic)
Plaza de los Afiliados
Dedicated to the Heart of NCLR
| | Its Affiliates | |
What began in 1968 as a "Council" of seven community organizations in three states has grown into a national network that reaches every corner of the nation and touches millions of lives daily. The belief that NCLR and its Affiliates can, together, advance the Latino community is rooted in two traditions: American values of family, faith, and hard work and the ideals of individual responsibility and equality of opportunity.
In celebration of our conviction that strong partnerships build strong communities and a stronger nation, this Plaza is dedicated to our commitment to a shared history, common agenda, and united future with our Affiliates.
Erected 2008 by National Council of La Raza [now Unidos US].
