The Latin American Association works to lower the barriers to economic mobility and prosperity that Latino immigrants face as they adapt and integrate to life in the United States. Out of service centers in Atlanta, Gwinnett County and northwest Georgia, the LAA brings to life the American dream by providing the resources, support and sense of community that Georgia’s Latino families need to thrive.

From stabilizing families in times of crisis to adjusting immigration status, from offering adult English classes to placing job seekers with employers, from guiding youth on a path to success to elevating women entrepreneurs, the LAA’s trusted bilingual staff works diligently to ensure Latino immigrants have a shot at social and economic equity.

No other organization in Georgia serving Latinos has the geographic reach, breadth of services, expertise and longevity that the LAA has. Founded in 1972, the work of the LAA improves the lives of 40,000 individuals every year.
