From the Board of Directors

As board chair, I’m so proud of the work that La Paz has done in the community, day in and day out - especially in the middle of a pandemic. La Paz Chattanooga quickly mobilized to meet the needs within the community when there were not resources in Spanish for our local Latino community. When there were not accessible Covid-19 testing sites, when there were not providers to distribute food boxesto the Hispanic population. La Paz has done what it does best; worked to meet community needs exactly where the community is.

Quickly after the pandemic arrived in Chattanooga, it became clear that our Latino neighbors were essential workers, putting themselves at risk to keep our community going. Because of their continued exposure they became the first group to be hit by the virus. La Paz did not shy away from them; it did not treat them at an arm’s length. But, La Paz socially distanced and air hugged the community. Providing the community with the resources they need to literally survive. Thank you, La Paz, for your service. I pray that the skills that we have learned are not repeated too quickly.
