Casa Gua­na­ju­ato employs a dynamic team of tal­ented, hard work­ing, expe­ri­enced and mission-driven bi-lingual lead­ers who are pro­fes­sion­ally and per­son­ally ded­i­cated to the edu­ca­tion and empow­er­ment of the Latino and immi­grant com­mu­ni­ties across the Quad Cities region.  Their com­mit­ment and pas­sion inspires par­tic­i­pants to grow, move for­ward, and reach their fullest potential.
