Latino Advocacy & Leadership Association

Asociación Latina De Abogacİa Y Liderazgo

Community leaders honor and celebrate our diverse cultural heritage to strengthen and advocate for the inter-generational well being and health of Whatcom County’s Latino communities.

We use the term Latino inclusive of those who define themselves as Latina, Latine, Latino and Latinx.

Resource Directories

Although LALA-W doesn’t offer direct services (yet), we help connect our community members to resources. Below are resource directories that offer free or low-cost services and connect individuals with organizations providing support in different areas such as healthcare, childcare, food, housing, financial aid, legal assistance, and more.
