Our Humble Roots
How we got started
El Programa Hispano’s humble roots began in 1982 when a small group of outreach workers from Catholic Family Services, now Catholic Charities of Oregon (CCO), conducted outreach to Latino migrant farmworkers in East Multnomah County. In 2015, with the support of CCO, El Programa became an independent 501(c)3 organization. Today, we serve more than 32,000 individuals annually in the areas of Economic Sustainability, Education, Community Wellness and UNICA, our Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault prevention, intervention, and advocacy program. Our vision is a thriving Latine Community living to our fullest potential.
Although EPHC is affiliated with the Catholic Charities Network, a candidate or participant does not need to be a Catholic to work with us or to receive services. Across our programs and services, staff of all faiths or none, work within our framework of respect for our mission, a person’s dignity and the common good.

Un momento histórico para nuestra comunidad.
Hoy, Portland dio un paso para honrar a quienes han trabajado, organizado y luchado para abrir caminos para las generaciones que siguen. El cambio de nombre de César Chávez Boulevard a Campesinos Boulevard reconoce la fuerza y las contribuciones de los campesinos, trabajadores inmigrantes, organizadores y líderes que han sido parte fundamental de la historia del movimiento laboral en Oregon.
Desde El Programa Hispano Católico, celebramos este reconocimiento a nuestras raíces, nuestra historia y a quienes, con su esfuerzo y valentía, ayudaron a construir un mejor futuro para todos.
Honrar nuestras raíces es honrar a quienes abrieron el camino.
