“Community ownership includes our community organizing and programs efforts. Trp develops community leadership, and active civic engagement includes a commitment to provide opportunities for leadership roles in the community through churches, block clubs, schools, and other venues. Trp also conducts a variety of workshops, services, prevention and awareness work into the community; many of these programmatic offerings stem from the organization's role as lead agency for pilsen in the new communities program. In 2016 community ownership impacted over 8,000 people with the following being just a few of the highlights: in the 2015-2016 academic year, trp supported 45 parents in five back of the yards' schools through the parent mentors program. During the 2015-2016 academic year, trp served a total of 2,746 individuals and families through la casa's resident services and outreach programs. With the changing political landscape in 2016, trp's immigration program nimbly grew its outreach to begin supporting deportation defense efforts. In partnership with the mayor's office, trp is a lead on providing citywide immigration legal services to those who are at high risk for deportation. In 2016, trp supported nearly 2,000 people through applying for daca, citizenship and answering other legal status questions. Trp's health programs served 1360 individuals through health workshops. Health promoters (promotoras) provided one-on-one education to 400 individuals through the mexican consulate.”
