Thank you for recognizing LUCI and the importance of building strong connections in our community. 🇺🇸🇲🇽 We are grateful to the Consulate of Mexico in Omaha and all our local leaders and partners who joined us. Together, we can ensure our community has access to the information, resources, and support they need. ❤️

🇺🇸One of the best ways we can serve people is simply making sure they know what resources are available to them.

This week, Latinos Unidos for Community Inclusion (LUCI) brought together leaders from Cedar Rapids and Marion, along with the Cedar Rapids Civil Rights Commission, to meet with representatives from the Consulate of Mexico in Omaha. The Mexican consulate serves both Nebraska and Iowa. (Consulado Mexicano⁠)🇲🇽

Whether someone is here temporarily or has made Cedar Rapids home for many years, knowing where to turn for information, assistance and support matters.

Thank you to LUCI for bringing us together and continuing to build those connections in our community.
