About Us

Building a better represented community in Valley West/North Arcata

Our Purpose: 

CUNA is a grassroots Latinx led bilingual project to build a better represented Valley West. North Arcata is a  traditionally underserved, disadvantaged, and vulnerable community. We have often been referred to as the "other Arcata" or Arcata's Black Sheep. We believe that by focusing on community engagement and strategic collaboration, we can collectively work towards building a better represented and thriving Valley West.

​

Our Vision: 

As we begin to build trust with our city government, community residents, and local businesses

our bilingual group has the long term goal to develop a Resilience HUB/Family Resource Center so that

community members can have access to essential services. The goal is to continue to identify community needs

in order to create services and outlets for community members who are in need of support.

​

We are excited to share our long term goal to work collaboratively with the community to create

Resilience HUB/Family Resource Center has come to fruition!  During non disaster times,  the Resilience HUB will act as a Family Resource Center, a community gathering space, and educational resources for all.

We anticipate the opening of our Resilience HUB/Family Resource Center in late August 2024.

CUNA is here for the community.

Sobre Nosotras

Construyendo una comunidad de Valley West mejor representada

​

Nuestro Propósito:

Creemos que centrándonos en el compromiso con la comunidad y la colaboración estratégica, podemos trabajar colectivamente para construir un Valley West mejor representado.

​

Nuestra Visión:

A medida que comenzamos a desarrollar la confianza con el ayuntamiento, los residentes de la comunidad y las empresas locales, nuestro grupo bilingüe espera desarrollar un centro de recursos para que los miembros de la comunidad puedan tener acceso a servicios esenciales. El objetivo es continuar identificando las necesidades de la comunidad con el fin de crear servicios, oportunidades y empleo para los padres, los jóvenes y aquellos miembros de la comunidad que necesiten apoyo.

​

Trabajamos para desarrollar relaciones comunitarias con la esperanza de crear en colaboración un centro de recursos que también sirva como centro de resiliencia, espacio de centro comunitario y recursos educativos para todos.
