Our Pathways

Our Promotora-Led Programs

Through four core training pathways, Promotoras and community members explore their interests, strengthen their skills, and grow into leaders who influence systems and uplift their communities across Northern Colorado.

The Promotora Model

Community-Led Change Starts Here

All of our programs are built on the Promotora Model — trusting that the best solutions come from within the community itself. Promotoras are trained local leaders who serve as bridges between families and the resources, knowledge, and support they need to thrive.

Your Journey

How the Pathways Work

There is no single entry point — participants are welcome to start wherever they feel most connected. Over time, many Promotoras expand across multiple pathways, deepening their skills and broadening their impact in Northern Colorado communities.
Each pathway offers workshops, peer support networks, and leadership development opportunities — all delivered in Spanish and English, rooted in cultural wisdom, and designed around the realities of the families we serve.
