Sustaining Hoosier Communities: ALASI Web Project

Project abstract
Several groups of student teams worked to ultimately create a website for the ALASI organization in Huntingburg. The new site can be found here: https://www.alasiindiana.com

Community partners
Association of Latin Americans in Southern Indiana (ALASI) was founded in 2008 by individuals who saw a need for Latino representation in our community. These individuals worked with local organizations and government to find a voice for the Latin Community. They worked hard to help the Latino Community bind together and prosper with neighboring communities. It in evident in the results we see today because of their sacrifice, determination, and care for their fellow Latinos.
