Esperanza United, formerly known as Casa de Esperanza, is a nonprofit organization based in Minneapolis, MN, dedicated to mobilizing Latinas and Latin communities to end gender-based violence. Founded in 1982, Esperanza United provides support, advocacy, and resources to Latin survivors of domestic violence, as well as their families and communities. With a focus on cultural strengths and wisdom, Esperanza United works towards creating greater safety, connectedness, and self-sufficiency for Latin survivors through their Latina Advocacy Framework.
Recognizing that domestic violence is just one of many barriers faced by individuals, Esperanza United also offers training, technical assistance, and a knowledge base for practitioners and activists working to end gender-based violence. Their 24/7 bilingual crisis line provides confidential support and assistance to those in need, both locally in Minnesota and nationwide. Through their commitment to gender inclusion and recognizing the contributions of all genders, Esperanza United strives to create a more inclusive and equitable society.
