    Biographical / Historical

    The purpose of MEChA de Stanford is to respond to the social, political, cultural, and educational needs of the Chican@/Latin@ community and to promote and publicize these needs to the Stanford Community at large. Founded in 1969 as a response to the discrimination of Chican@s and Latin@s in society, MEChA is now dedicated to fostering cultural awareness, political activism, educational outreach, and a bond of familia in Chican@/Latin@ students. https://web.stanford.edu/group/MEChA/blog/about.html
