Welcome Message

Welcome to the National Compadres Network (NCN). We work with individuals, organizations and communities around the country based on our philosophy of La Cultura Cura (LCC) or transformational health and healing. LCC philosophy continues the teachings of our ancestors who reinforced the importance of sacred values, traditions and interconnected relationships as the foundation of cultural strength. Please visit this website often to see the amazing work being done by our staff and local and national partners. We look forward to serving as a resource to support and share the work you do. Bendiciones.
