Latinos Unidos Siempre [LUS] was founded in 1996 by a group of Latinx youth in Salem, who decided to take a stand against the constant profiling and criminalization of youth of color by local authorities and of immigration raids terrorizing their families.

Since then, LUS has grown as an organization that empowers youth through leadership development; which is exercised through civic engagement, grassroots organizing and community engagement.
