Latino group awarded $3.4M to fund health career program
February 26, 2010
SUN-TIMES MEDIA WIRE
The Illinois Dept. of Labor has awarded the National Council of La Raza a $3.4 million award to invest in health services training for high-need Latino communities in Chicago
The money will fund the Carreras en Salud program, which provides low-income, low-skilled Latinos with a structured but flexible career pathway to nursing and health occupations, according to a release from the NCLR.
Carreras en Salud offers integrated services to overcome barriers to employment and career advancement, such as job training, career counseling and assistance in job placement, the release said.
The program represents a workforce parternship betwen NCLR and its Chicago-based affiliates, the Instituto del Progreso Latino, Association House of Chicago and Humboldt Park Vocational Education Center, the release said.
Services will be easily accessible, as all three partners are located in Latino communities -- HPVEC and AHC in the Humboldt Park area, and Instituto del Progreso Latino in the Pilsen neighborhood.
NCLR is the largest national Latino civil rights and advocacy organization in the United States, the release said

The Rutgers Immigration Infrastructure Map, a work in progress since last June, will identify and describe each of the 650-plus social-service agencies in New Jersey that support immigrants, and will map them on a website.
By publicizing the agencies work, project organizers hope to help immigrants adapt to their new life, and to determine where more services are needed. The map is expected to be made public in June or July. The map will try to identify every single community-based organization in New Jersey that caters to immigrants.
"We want people to be able to find advocacy organizations and to hook up with people doing community organizing or day care,"

Since when is heathcare considered a job that Americans won't do?
[
There is no job that Americans won't do, obviously.
If these Latinos are citizens or hold green cards what's wrong with this program?
A Mexican-American is no less an American citizen than you or I are.
