WELCOME TO THE CENTRO ROMERO WEBSITE
Join our 1st Chicago Marathon Team
Centro Romero is a community-based organization that serves the refugee immigrant population on the northeast side of Chicago. Our interrelated programs include adult education, women's empowerment projects, legal assistance, and youth learning and leadership development as well as special projects such as Community organizing and HIV/AIDS Outreach and Education. These are essential services that support healthy personal and social development of participants. Our long-term organizational goal is to bridge a disenfranchised community of Latino immigrants and refugees into mainstream American society as well as improving their opportunity for upward social mobility. Long-term sustainable growth of our target population will only be achieved through education, leadership development, and advocacy; therefore we focus our energy in related initiatives.
If you want to help to strengthen the efforts to improve the conditions of our Latino population, you may do so by volunteering or by supporting our cause. For other types of donations please contact the Associate Director Abel Nuñez by email or by phone at (773) 508-5300.
Special Notice: Centro Romero expresses our condolences to the family and friends of Anna Badaracco, who passed away on August of 2006. In her time at Centro Romero as a volunteer ESL teacher, Anna was a dedicated, compassionate and caring teacher. She will be missed. The Badaracco family has requested (instead of sending flowers) that donations be made in Anna Badaracco’s memory to Centro Romero. To make a donation please click here.
