Hermanos y Hermanas Mayores Latino Outreach Initiative

Hermanos y Hermanas Mayores, which translates as Big Brothers and Big Sisters, aims to assist Latino youth, ages 8-18 years old, develop into responsible adults through bilingual mentors who have an interest in serving the Latino community. Professional bilingual staff who create the Latino matches support these relationships. The goal is to provide Latino youth in the metropolitan Washington region with positive adult role models who understand their culture. We have successful programs in Washington, DC and Fairfax County, VA and wish to expand throughout the metropolitan Washington region.
