Centro Multicultural La Familia (CMLF) is a Pontiac-based non-profit that works in the areas of domestic violence, sexual assault, substance abuse, and mental health. CMLF has served primarily communities of color, especially Spanish-speaking individuals and immigrants in the area for over 15 years!

Recently, CMLF has been working on our Summer Youth Employment Program, providing Pontiac youth ages 16-18 with a stable income working on environmental sustainability and beautifying Pontiac as well as professional development. We also have a Social Justice Street Art Program that will culminate in a mural across the street from Growing Pontiac's Paddock Farm, where we will end the summer with a Healing Community Garden. Community organizing and healing justice are central to the work we do, and we cannot wait to share that with others!

During the pandemic, we have been grateful to provide families support with over 9500 culturally-specific food boxes that have been distributed to families hit hard in these times. We are proud to say that in our collaboration with the Oakland County Health Department and Honor Community Health, Centro has participated in Vaccination Clinics at various sites where over 3000 people have been vaccinated including over 900 members of the Latinx community. Find out More.
