LARASA Moving Ahead in the New Decade: Dr. Estevan Flores Named Interim Director

A Letter from LARASA's Board Chair, Mr. Alex Sanchez

 

LARASA is re-focusing it's efforts on our past pillars of success: advocacy, research and direct services.  The new and improved LARASA will  advocate for the poor and disenfranchised, deliver relevant information and data about issues and policies that impact our communities and provide the community with access to critical social and government services. We will re-launch the organization in April 2010 with new focus areas and broader priorities.

 

New leadership in 2010

 

Mr. Thomas Ogas recently left LARASA. We thank Thomas for his passion and extraordinary service to LARASA over the past 16 months.  We wish him well in his next venture.

 

The board has named Dr. Estevan Flores, a sociologist, as interim director of LARASA. Dr. Flores has over 25 years of leadership experience in the non-profit and academic sectors. Formerly, Estevan was executive director of the Latino/a Research & Policy Center at CU Denver for 10 years and was a tenured Associate Professor at CU Boulder. Estevan was a Kellogg National Leadership Fellow and has served on numerous boards including the National Advisory Committee to Reduce Health Disparities to DHHS, the Praxis Project, the Colorado Latino Forum and Clinica Tepeyac.   

 

I am more optimistic today about LARASA's future than ever before.  The Board and staff are working hard to ensure decades more of success in meeting our mission of strengthening the Latino community.

 

Your support and commitment to LARASA in 2010 is vital to our growth and continued success. Please read Dr. Flores' regular communications "News you can use" and help LARASA move ahead in the new decade!

 

With gratitude,
