As a vibrant student center, El Centro Chicano works to support students academically, personally, socially, and culturally. We focus on creating mature, aware and socially responsible individuals who advocate and dialogue for equity and social justice. 

Within the Chicano and Latino community there is great diversity of backgrounds, aspirations, and sociopolitical views which adds to the richness of our collective experience. El Centro’s programs provide Stanford students the opportunity to explore Chicano and Latino culture, history, and traditions.
