What We Do
The Latino Center of the Midlands (LCM) is an education and social service nonprofit located in South Omaha, the heart of Omaha’s Latino community. It is our mission to cultivate generations of engaged, thriving Latinos through educational support, workforce development, and leadership opportunities by serving Omaha's Latino community. Across our three major programs, Family and Community Well-Being, Pathways to Success, and Workforce Education and Innovation, we reach over 2,500 individuals and families each year.  With three main programs, our "why" at The Latino Center of the Midlands is to foster generations of active, prosperous Latinos in order to make the society more equitable for all Latinos.
