Overview
The Latino Community Foundation (LCF), headquartered in San Francisco, was established in 1989 to build Latino philanthropy and invest in community organizations that support Latino families. Since 2008, teen pregnancy prevention has been at the forefront of the issues that LCF addresses. Although the teen birth rate in California has decreased dramatically in recent years, the rate among Latina teens remains high. This grant would enable LCF to support the teen pregnancy prevention programs of six to eight Latino organizations, selected through a competitive process in the San Francisco Bay Area and California’s Central Valley.
