Mexico Affiliate

Ever conscious that their kind of leadership is a powerful tool for building resiliency in individuals and communities, FLA participants have taken the program to their former homeland. Today FLA has an affiliate in three Mexico cities, and is a registered non-profit with its own Board of Directors. This group blossomed through the hard work of college students who participated in the first Washington DC conference sponsored by FLA in 1992. Today, these FLAers in Mexico raise their own funds to implement the FLA Leadership Camp and Enrichment Workshops every year. The affiliate is run by a national committee and nine sub-committees organized according to career of interest. FLA professionals in Mexico mentor young high school and college students in the democratic process, community service, and social justice for the Mexican people.
