About this organization
Mission
The mission of Hyde Square Task Force is to amplify the power, creativity, and voices of youth, connecting them to Afro-Latin culture and heritage so they can create a diverse, vibrant Latin Quarter and build a just, equitable Boston. We support youth as they explore, master, and celebrate Afro-Latin culture through art; learn, grow, and achieve academically and in life; and develop into changemakers and advocates for themselves.
About
Creative development and organizing. HSTF has placed a renewed emphasis on providing free, accessible, and year-round Afro-Latin culture-based programming in Boston's Latin Quarter. We organize a six week Viva El Latin Quarter! summer series with music performances, Zumba, art-making, and other activities. We also organize a Latin Quarter Fiesta and a Halloween festival in the fall, and a Parranda and Three Kings Day celebration in the winter. Our community development program is going a long way towards building a dynamic and vibrant Latin Quarter. HSTF believes it is critical to support our youth leaders as they transform their lives, and as they transform our community. Our youth leaders have organized and advocated for systemic changes which have beautified and rejuvenated neighborhood parks and public spaces, sustained local businesses against big box stores, and gotten comprehensive sex education and civics curricula into Boston public schools. Thanks to our youth leaders, program staff, and community partners, our neighborhood, once known as New England's 'cocaine capital', has transformed into Boston's Latin Quarter. Due to the advocacy of our youth leaders, the city of Boston has produced more equitable opportunities for our young people, their families, and their community.
