We Are Movimiento Poder.

OUR VISION

Movimiento Poder is building a world where first-generation, migrante, women, and queer Latines can thrive, live with a sense of belonging, have enough abundance to keep each other safe, and build collective power to liberate themselves and their communities from all systems of oppression.

What we do

Nuestra Riqueza

Nuestra Alma

At Movimiento Poder, we are firm believers in the power of love as a key driver of transformative change. Deeply rooted in our history and community, Movimiento Poder works to foster a community that thrives on amor, resilience and the shared strength of our interconnected roots to gain collective power.

Nuestro Voto

Our government works best when it includes all of us. Movimiento Poder serves as a point of convergence and a power-building vessel for young people, migrantes, women, and the LGBTQ+ community in Colorado to not only shape our collective vision but also gain the power to turn it into reality.

Nuestra Voz

The most powerful and impactful movements for change are powered by people from the ground up. Movimiento Poder works to empower and center the voices of working-class Latine immigrants, youth, women, families and queer folks to foster a world where we all belong, thrive, and have the ability to shape our futures.
