50 years ago, a group of Latino high school students in Phoenix, AZ were denied equal access to a college education because of their ethnicity. These students came together as grassroots organizers to stand up for their rights and demand equal treatment. Because of their work, school policies were changed. Dreams were achieved. And their movement, which they called Chicanos Por La Causa (CPLC), was born.

50 years later, CPLC continues to stand for equal opportunity for all people. Like you, we still believe that everyone—without discrimination—deserves access to a quality education; safe, affordable housing; accessible healthcare; and meaningful work to support themselves and their families. CPLC provides a hand-up to help people overcome barriers and achieve the American dream. Your support of these values makes our work possible.

Today, we ask you to take a stand for your values by joining CPLC. Please consider making a donation, joining our staff, or volunteering at a community service event. Together, we are an unmovable barrier that stands against the tide of bigotry and ensures all people have the right to achieve the American Dream.
