Throughout our time, we’ve had the opportunity to organize during two Census’. In 2020, we connected with 84,000 people about the importance of being counted and how their communities can benefit from equitable resources allocated through the Census. Following those efforts, we mobilized over 8,000 people in the redistricting process throughout the Central & Antelope Valley. In the fight for fair maps and proper representation, we’ve championed a 135% VRA increase in Kern, Tulare, Kings, Fresno, Madera, and Merced counties. This could not have been accomplished without the support of the Vecinos Unidos® and each department who helped educate, inform and organize community members.
During the pandemic, our grassroots organizing went virtual. With regional and technological barriers, we made an effort to bridge the digital divide by providing tech & computer training to Vecinos Unidos® and youth members. We also hosted 40 COVID-19 informational meetings with a total of 179 Vecinos Unidos® members in attendance.
In addition to educational information, we provided PPE, and COVID-19 resources, and hosted 90 United Against COVID-19 clinics (& counting!) giving over 7,741+ people the opportunity to obtain a professionally administered vaccine(s) to protect themselves and their families. We didn’t stop there. We’re humbled to have hosted approximately 57 food distributions where over 14,312 families were served a variety of hot cooked, canned, and fruitful goods.
Today, we continue to organize for equal opportunities and resources in the communities that have been systematically underrepresented.

We've advocated for the following legislation and continue to support bills that untie & serve the community.
