“An outreach group in Washington County that’s become a second home to many Latinas is about to open its doors to a new generation: Latinitas, or young Latina girls.

Toward the end of this month, Adelante Mujeres or Onward Women will add a miniversion of itself with Adelante Chicas — Onward Young Girls. The program will cater to girls, ages 9 to 13, at three Forest Grove schools, eventually moving into the local high school and, if all goes well, surrounding school districts.

It’s a bold but natural move for a 5-year-old organization that has been lauded by groups across the metro area and even in Mexico for its unusually intimate approach and diverse offerings.”*
