The CCE is thrilled to announce that El Concilio has honored us with their 2021 Guerreros Award in recognition of an organization that has continuously volunteered with El Concilio and has donated hundreds of hours to supporting the Kalamazoo Latinx community. Moises Hernandez, Assistant Director of the CCE, accepted the award from Adrian Vazquez and Emma Robbin at El Concilio’s 40^th anniversary Nuestras Raices Gala on September 18, 2021, which all CCE staff attended. El Concilio envisions a thriving Latinx community, equipped to preserve distinct cultural identities within the broader community, and they enable and promote the prosperity of the Latinx community by providing a variety of services, programs, and cultural events. The CCE works with El Concilio in our Community Based Internship program.
