RAD Program
​(Reaching for the American Dream)

The Reaching for the American Dream (RAD) program empowers our community through civic engagement and immigration support. HWOA is proud to be the only Latino-led organization in Northwest Arkansas recognized and accredited by the U.S. Department of Justice's Office of Legal Access Programs to provide immigration legal services. This accreditation allows us to assist lawful permanent residents with the naturalization process, ensuring they receive trusted, culturally competent guidance.
Through RAD, we also promote active civic participation by registering new voters, sharing critical election information at the local, state, and federal levels, and encouraging informed engagement in the democratic process. The program is rooted in the belief that all individuals should have the opportunity to pursue the American Dream and be active contributors to the communities they call home.
-The decision to become a naturalized citizen of the United States positively contributes to all levels of American society and affords robust rights and protections.-
