Education and Leadership Programs

Founded in 1973, LNESC began as a financial aid and college admissions outreach program designed to assist low-income, high school student’s admission to college. Throughout decades of service, LNESC has developed programs that follow students through each developmental level, aimed at maximizing the educational potential of Latino youth to help them become life-long learners and leaders.
