Congreso is a nationally recognized,
community based non-profit organization that primarily
serves the neighborhoods of Eastern North Philadelphia
where the majority of the city's Latino population
resides. This area is a culturally vibrant community
challenged by issues of poverty, access to health
care, low educational attainment and unemployment.
Founded in 1977 as a grassroots organization providing
health services to the region's Puerto Rican community,
Congreso has responded to the community's changing
demographics and evolving needs for more than 30
years by growing into a multifaceted, comprehensive
provider of human services.
Congreso's mission is to strengthen Latino communities
through social, economic, education, and health
services; leadership development; and advocacy.
