OLA Grantees and Programs
OLA’s two main grants programs are the Latino Community Education and Latino Community Health grants. The aim of the Latino Community Education program is to support the provision of culturally and linguistically appropriate services to the District’s Latino community, complement the education and training resources available in the city, and support appropriate and quality training and educational services that increase the work skills of Latinos or lead to decreased school drop out rates of Latino youth. The Latino Community Health program grants seek to increase access to health care, reduce the disparities found between Latinos and other population groups, and improve health outcomes for underserved Spanish-speaking constituents.
