Our Mission
La Casa Amiga fosters cultural understanding by serving diverse groups of people in our community and supporting them as they build bridges from their own cultures to the wider Jefferson County community.
Through inclusive programs and initiatives, we empower new immigrants and long‑time residents to share traditions, learn from one another, and grow together as active and valued members of our shared home.
About Our Program
La Casa Amiga serves as a vital hub for newcomers, connecting them to essential resources and fostering their active participation within our community. This welcoming space celebrates the rich diversity of cultures, enriching our Jefferson County community while improving the lives of immigrants and residents alike.
