Information and Referrals
Centro
Cultural is the first contact for many
Latinos seeking services and
information, and the first stop for
immigrants arriving in the area. Our
doors open at 9:00 a.m. we close at 5:00
p.m. for general services, and as late
at 9:00 pm, depending on the classes
holding session. We provide I&R services
during all these hours. Services are
available from the front desk and on the
telephone Monday through Thursday from
9:00 am to 5:00 pm, and Friday 1:00 pm
to 5:00 pm. The front desk attendant is
the person mainly responsible for
Information and Referral. People receive
information on services available at
Centro and other organizations in the
area. Because most people who come for
services do not speak English, or feel
more comfortable in a Spanish speaking
environment, many times a referral and
interpretation must follow the initial
contact. In addition, we provide
assistance in filling out forms and
applications for employment, licenses,
accidents, police reports, medical
needs, etc. An average of 65 people
receive Information and Referral
Services from Centro Cultural every day.
General information is available at the
front desk/reception at Centro.
