Activities:

Pilot data collected in 2019 was used to inform the creation of ¡Salir Adelante! Caminos a Nuestro Futuro (Pathways for our Future), a curriculum focused on promoting career and college readiness among Latinx youth and their families. During six, 2-hour workshop sessions, families gain information and access to resources, develop skills, and explore strategies to create paths for successful futures. The curriculum is family orientated, experiential, culturally responsive, based on individual and family strengths, and on research findings, and communicates that education is more than academics.

 Bertha Mendoza, Extension Specialist – Nutrition

 Summer Meals Program in Garden City, Kansas. This is our sixth consecutive year where I assist Hispanic Churches to provide summer meals to low income families from neighborhoods where Hispanic children live. Children 1-18 are allowed to have a hot meal, over 900 meals were served. Bridging the gap between State and Federal programs by providing training to Spanish speaking volunteers so they can feed children in need. 

 In collaboration with Ogallala Commons, an eight-state community development effort, I  provided technology classes to Hispanic families in two counties in Southwest Kansas. More than thirty families participated.  I Facilitated conversations between government officials and the Hispanic community where their opinions were taken into consideration for budget planning. Participants also learned about the importance of the 2020 Census and the benefits of getting counted. Participated radio interviews to inform the Hispanic community about the importance of the census.  

I assisted college students with enrollment as well as seeking financial information to pay for their education. Identified local resources for parents, who want to support their children while attending college but lack the basic knowledge, serving as a bridge between families and college resources. 

Graduated more than 300 Hispanic participants including youth and adults, in the nutrition programs SNAP-Ed and EFNEP.  

Participated in the on-going Inclusion and Diversity taskforce for K-State Research and Extension.  My role is to make recommendations to ensure that historically-excluded identities receive equitable representation in institutions and communities while being treated with dignity and respect.

Gerardo Martinez, ALIANZAS

In response to the increasing Latinx population in Missouri, Alianzas was created in 2001 with UMKC to enhance the ability of University of Missouri Extension and its partners to respond to the needs of Latinx immigrants and the Missouri communities that receive them.

Alianzas is a statewide program housed at the UMKC/Institute for Human Development (IHD), its focus is the implementation of outreach programs that focus on a community-based, collaborative learning approach. We provide trainings on cultural value differences, technical Assistance, Information Dissemination and community outreach.

Broad focus: Underserved populations –focused on community inclusion and social belonging for Latinos and all, we are striving to improve overall quality of life in Missouri.

Alianzas collaborated one more time with Binational Health Week (BHW), which it has evolved into one of the largest mobilization efforts in the Americas to improve the health and well-being of the underserved Latino population that lives in the United States and Canada. During BHW, federal, state and local government agencies, community-based organizations and thousands of volunteers come together in the month of October to conduct a series of health promotion and health education activities including workshops, insurance referrals, vaccinations and medical screenings.BHW main partners include the Secretariats of Health and Foreign Affairs of Mexico. This year we had it again at the Buchannan County/Saint Joseph, MO in where more than 80 families came to receive free health screening and groceries.

Alianzas provided in Spanish, the acclaimed leadership training: The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, to 40 Latinx community leaders for the Catholic Diocese of Jefferson City, MO. They came from six different counties and received the tools to apply its principles and becoming better leaders in their respective personal and professional lives.

 Alianzas provided in Spanish, the acclaimed leadership training: The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, to 40 Latinx community leaders for the Catholic Diocese of Jefferson City, MO. They came from six different counties and received the tools to apply its principles and becoming better leaders in their respective personal and professional lives.

We just finished our 4ht. year collaborating with FCS Financial that provides a great 8 weeks Internship program to first generation Latino students. Alianzas in conjunction with their HR department recruits and interview potential candidates for their all paid internship.

Three-fold mission on this internship are the following:

• Provide an excellent opportunity to Latino students develop their professional skills and getting to know the loan-farm industry.
• Increase the awareness of the Latino cultural values within FCS organization. FCS wishes to become a more diverse and inclusive organization.
• Reach out to Latino farmers within the state of Missouri.

This year, Gerardo Martinez, Alianzas Program Director, recently joined the Missouri Developmental Disabilities Council (MODDC) as the University Center for Excellence in Developmental Disabilities Representative.  Gerardo is currently acting as a liaison for the University of Missouri Kansas City (UMKC)- the Institue for Human Development (IHD) and the board, which meets six times a year to discuss important issues related to DD and community living in Missouri. UMKC IHD values MODDC as an important partner in our work. Alianzas has served over 100 Latinx individuals with special needs during this year.

ALIANZAS GAVE SEVEN PRESENTATIONS ON LATINO CULTURAL VALUES AND CULTURAL SENSITIVITY TO SEVERAL ORGANIZATIONS AND INSTITUTIONS IN MISSOURI. MORE THAN 200 PROFESSIONALS GAIN TOOLS AND BEST PRACTICES ON HOW TO BE MORE EFFECTIVE WORKING WITH LATINOS.

The University of Missouri System has four campuses throughout our state. Alianzas has been collaborating with their Latino initiatives in order to support and learn from each other. Our goal is to find ways to increase our recruitment of new Latino students.
