Latinos Aquí is a community rooted in connection, belonging, and shared purpose. Originally founded in 2016 as the West Michigan Latino Network, the organization was created to bring Latino men together to build relationships, learn from one another, and create space for authentic community. Today, Latinos Aquí carries that vision forward with a renewed name, broader sense of belonging, and a commitment to ensuring Latinos feel seen, valued, and connected. Grounded in the spirit of Compas in Community, Latinos Aqui exists to foster meaningful relationships, celebrate culture, and create opportunities for our community to grow together. “Compas” is a culturally rooted term of affection and familiarity that speaks to friendship, trust, and belonging. For us, it reflects the spirit of being in community with one another.
