Cultural Connections

Las Comadres looks to celebrate Houston's diversity by providing mentees a way to honor Latino heritage through various cultural outings. The opportunity to connect with cultural experiences in our community have opened up conversations and experiences that are helping our mentees grow and connect with Latino cultural heritage. In the past, mentees have participated in programming across the city including Houston's Fiestas Patrias Parade and Houston Symphony's Selena Tribute performance.
