“A Historic Step for Our Madre Tierra and Inclusive Conservation”

“Corazón Latino applauds the Biden-Harris Administration for their historic commitment to protect America's mature and old-growth forests. This action, rooted in President Biden's Earth Day Executive Order, goes beyond environmental preservation; it’s a profound affirmation of our collective responsibility to safeguard our Madre Tierra.” said Felipe Benítez, Executive Director and Founder of Corazón Latino

“This decision aligns perfectly with our mission to engage and uplift communities in environmental stewardship, emphasizing justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion. The focus on revising forest management plans and bolstering urban and community forests is a testament to the importance of inclusivity in conservation.”

“As a voice for front-line communities in environmental discussions, Corazón Latino is eager to lend its support to these efforts. We see this as an invaluable opportunity to strengthen our bond with the land that is central to our heritage and essential for our future.”
