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.

🧠💚 10 de octubre | Día Internacional de la Salud Mental
No siempre podemos ver lo que una persona está viviendo por dentro.
A veces, detrás de una sonrisa hay cansancio. Detrás de un “estoy bien”, hay una lucha.
Hablar también es sanar. Pedir ayuda también es fortaleza. Y cuidar nuestra salud mental también es cuidarnos.
En El Programa Hispano Católico, trabajamos para acompañar y conectar a nuestra comunidad con recursos y apoyo para cuidar su bienestar y salud mental.
💚 Tu bienestar importa. Tú importas. No tienes que atravesarlo en soledad.

🧠💚 October 10 | World Mental Health Day
We cannot always see what someone may be carrying inside.
Sometimes, behind a smile there is exhaustion. Behind “I’m fine,” there may be a struggle.
Talking can be healing. Asking for help is a sign of strength. And caring for our mental health is an essential part of caring for ourselves.
At El Programa Hispano Católico, we work to support our community and connect individuals and families with resources and support for their mental health and well-being.
💚 Your well-being matters. You matter. You don’t have to go through it alone.
