About Hispanic Unity of Florida

Hispanic Unity of Florida (HUF) was originally founded in 1982 by community leaders to guide newcomers to the U.S. on their journey to their American dream and to ease the acculturation process. Today, HUF is Broward County's largest 501(c) (3) dedicated to the immigrant population. With 12 programs and more than 30 services offered in 4 languages, this agency is able to serve South Florida's diverse community. In 2019, the agency served more than 16,000 children, youth and adults. HUF offers assistance at three main office locations and provides extended services at 50+ outreach locations. The agency focuses on three major areas: Language & Education, Economic Mobility & Entrepreneurship, and Citizenship & Civic Engagement and also provided services in the areas of Health & Well-Being, Equal Treatment & Opportunity and Advocacy. HUF's mission is "Empowering immigrants and others to become self-sufficient, productive and civically engaged."
