Our efforts and impacts
Leadership Development
CLLARO’s leadership programs empower the next generation of Latino leaders so that the State’s Latino leadership and achievement gaps cease to exist.
Advocacy
From Durango to Greeley and the mountain communities to Denver, CLLARO ensures Latinos statewide receive equitable treatment and full recognition of their rights.
Policy Research
CLLARO’s research institute provides in-depth nonpartisan research on current issues that matter to Colorado’s Latino community including healthcare, education, immigration, political representation, demographics, gentrification, and other civic and sociopolitical topics.
Amazing partners that move us forward

Peña Federico & Cindy
Former Denver Mayor Federico Peña and his wife Cindy are longtime outspoken CLLARO supporters. As one of our primary financial backers, Cindy and Federico demonstrate an admirable commitment to future generations of Colorado Latinos.
