At Northwest Center, we understand that the story of our community, along with our policy and advocacy work, as well as our community-centered programs, requires us to lead with data. That data includes numbers and analyses of patterns, trends, and projections, as well as the stories behind the numbers.

By grounding all of our work in data – both the numbers and the stories – we are best able to set priorities, inform action and advocacy, highlight equity, and strengthen the future of Latinos in Belmont Cragin, Chicago, the suburbs, and the state.

This section contains data summaries, reports, analyses, and articles that highlight the contributions of Latinos and the challenges they still face as we strive for greater equity.
