Mission

LUCHA advances housing as a human right by empowering communities – particularly the Latinx and Spanish-speaking populations – through advocacy, affordable housing development and community building. Founded in 1982, LUCHA (Latin United Community Housing Association) is both a U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)-approved housing counseling agency as well as a Community Housing Development Organization (CHDO). The LUCHA acronym is the Spanish word for "struggle," which reflects the organization's history of leading the struggle against discrimination, housing displacement, systemic inequity, and patterns of injustice which disproportionately impact members of Chicago's low- to moderate-income immigrant, Latinx and Black communities.
