Our History

Helping the community since 2004

Casa Juana Colón, Apoyo y Orientación a la Mujer, Inc. is a community organization founded in 2004 in response to the social and economic needs of women and their families in Comerío. In its early days, it focused on providing support and guidance to women in the community. Over time, and based on a deeper understanding of the realities they face, it expanded its mission to offer comprehensive services to women who are survivors of domestic violence, sexual violence, stalking, dating violence, and human trafficking, as well as to address the structural inequalities that fuel these issues.

Did you know we have a self-management project?

At Casa Juana Colón, we have developed a project that honors and shares with the world the story of the woman who inspires our name: Juana Colón. The Juana Colón Route is a community-led tour where, with your donation, you can walk the same streets where Juana began her struggle and dedication to the welfare of Comerío.

 

You will discover how, even without being part of the tobacco industry, she led and accompanied her community in the face of precarious working conditions, becoming a strong and courageous voice for social justice. We invite you to learn more about Juana Colón and, at the same time, support us in continuing to offer essential services to our community.
