Community Impact Coordinator

Organization Summary

Founded in 2018, Latinx Ed is on a mission to advance Latine leadership and participation in higher education. Through leadership development and policy advocacy, we are working to create a world where the systems that were meant to shape us, can be shaped by us. Our vision is to reimagine education systems that recognize, meet, and value the diverse needs and strengths of Latine families.

We support and partner with allies who share our commitment to educational justice, and we serve all who seek to build thriving, inclusive communities. Through our programming and advocacy, we create pathways to educational, professional, and civic engagement for Latine leaders and learners across North Carolina. We are committed to breaking down barriers and building frameworks that cultivate opportunity, dignity, and belonging for all.

Latinx Ed is a non‑profit organization that invests in Latine leadership and expands educational equity & opportunity in NC. We envision culturally sustaining education systems that recognize, meet, and honor the diverse needs of Latine immigrant families.

We believe that we must collectively invest in the growth and well‑being of Latine leaders to transform how education systems improve the postsecondary outcomes of Latine students. Ultimately, by supporting the success of Latine education leaders across the state, our work seeks to strengthen North Carolina’s increasingly diverse communities by fostering Latine leadership to ensure proportional representation in the state’s social, economic, and civic landscape.
