Co-founder and executive director, Honduran immigrant, activist, and community organizer with more than 13 years of experience in leadership, grassroots organizing and activism. Through her work at Familias Unidas en Accion (FUA by its acronym in Spanish), she analyzes and challenges our current political and social institutions by questioning their legitimacy and directly confronting how they perpetuate inequity. Leticia’s focuses include direct action, community organizing, and electoral work. As an undocumented Afro-descendant Garifuna immigrant, she knows that the future we imagine requires the creation of new institutions and practices to replace the broken ones that have not been serving us.
