Mission and programs · 2023

Mission

Aliento serves undocumented, DACA, and mixed immigration status families to transform trauma into hope and action. It is led by directly impacted individuals, youth, and allies who strive to create an environment where human potential is nurtured and not defined by immigration status. Aliento supports students and families impacted by the inequities of lacking immigration status through education initiatives, arts & healing programming, leadership development training, policy & advocacy.

Activities or mission (Part I)

Aliento serves undocumented, DACA, and mixed immigration status families to transform trauma into hope and action.

  • Our work is divided into a four-prong approach: 1 Cultiva is the name of our arts & healing programming where we provide arts & healing workshops and mental health support through group therapy, open mics, and events at schools and in the community. In the community, Aliento offers arts & healing workshops and open mics open to anyone in the community ages 7 and up. At schools, Aliento partners with K-20 education institutions to do the programming at school sites. 2 Nurture is the leadership development & ally engagement programming of the organization that is part of our education initiatives. Aliento works with high schools, community colleges, and universities to increase youth agency, leadership, and self-advocacy. Aliento provides paid fellowships & internships for school credit to help create and develop student hubs at high schools, colleges, and universities across Arizona. 3 Transform is our program rooted in the sentiment that no one can accomplish things alone. Aliento believes in broadening the coalition of support to create sustainable change in our communities and achieve Alientos mission of transforming trauma into hope and action. This is why we do professional development for educators, and host ally engagement training with faith leaders, school leaders, and state legislators. 4 Policy and Advocacy are our fourth approach to ensure systems and structures are equitable regardless of immigration status. In 2022, Alientos students, allies, and coalition partners advocacy led to the passage of in-state tuition and college scholarships for Arizona students regardless of immigration status.

On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
