During my time at Instituto del Progreso Latino I was incredibly privileged to be able to meet with many other great collaborative groups that allows me to connect community members with the resources they may need.
A portion of my time was also spent helping write and manage grants to fund the various programs we have here such as the New American's Initiative or New Leaf Illinois. I also worked directly with each department here at Instituto to coordinate events, digital outreach, and collaboration between departments.
I am proficient in Salesforce as a system administrator and supported Instituto with IT help that included management of the online nursing college system Canvas.
I had the privilege of collaborating with over 15 organizations each spring to host an Annual Community Resource Fair at Instituto del Progreso Latino. This free event provides a wide range of services for community members to everyone including legal aid, employment opportunities, free household items & toiletries, and more.
