Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Family Services for Adolescent Parents
Mission: Based on the principles of "un hombre noble" (a noble man), the mission of the national compadres network is to strengthen, rebalance, and/or redevelop the traditional "compadre" extended family system. It's by this process that we encourage and support the positive involvement of latino males as fathers, sons, grandfathers, brothers, compadres, partners, and mentors in their families and community.
Programs: The purpose of our organization is to improve the quality of life for low and moderate income latino families by strengthening the thread of positive and influential latino males in the fabric of our families and society at large. By increasing the positive support and influence of latino males in our communities we have demonstrated a positive impact on reducing the incidences of substance abuse, domestic violence, child abuse, teen pregnancy, gang violence, and other family and community problems. It is through this process that we encourage and support the positive involvement of latino males as fathers, sons, grandfathers, brothers, compadres, partners, and mentors in our families and communities.
