LASO provides orientations, referrals, and direct services by facilitating access to existing services and programs (i.e.: workshops and outreach, interagency liasions, making appointments and assuring interpreters, accompaniment), and provides services that may not otherwise be available (i.e. immigration clinics, consular visits, client advocacy). LASO also works with other entities to identify and develop new responses to emerging issues within the Hispanic Community, including leadership development. We seek to serve as a policy and program advocate for this underserved population, as well as partnering within the system to increase access to services.
While LASO targets its services to poor, Spanish-speaking residents with limited English proficiency, anyone is eligible to access the resources, programs and events we sponsor. Indeed, by attending Hispanic activities and celebrations the community gains a greater appreciation of the rich culture Hispanics bring to the Low Country.
Mission Statement
LASO's mission is to improve the quality of life of Hispanics living in the Low Country by empowering them with self-sufficiency and integration into our community.
