Aliento Archives 

Aliento Archives is a compilation of art, articles, photographs, and other digital materials that encompass the work of Aliento. Aliento’s mission is to transform trauma into hope and action through advocacy, youth leadership development, and mental health programming. Aliento has a holistic approach to the work of advancing opportunities for people impacted by their immigration status. This work is showcased through the materials in this archive, showing Aliento’s community working to create policy changes and a place where human potential is nurtured and not defined by immigration status.  

Aliento is a place where human potential is nurtured and not defined by immigration status. Aliento serves Latine, first-generation, undocumented, DACAmented, and mixed-status immigrant youth through arts and healing, leadership development, ally engagement, and policy and advocacy program activities. Throughout the organization, Aliento centers humanity and nurtures human potential, provides clinical and non-clinical quality health-focused programs, and dismantles barriers to education equity. We are youth-led and directly impacted people and allies who are invested in the well-being, emotional healing, and leadership development of those impacted by the inequities of lacking immigration status.
