All people should have the right to work, build a community, and determine their own future with a sense of dignity. The Central American Refugee Center – CARECEN promotes social justice and legal rights for Central Americans and all immigrants, particularly those of low and moderate income, through legal representation, advocacy, outreach, English classes, and community education and organizing.
