About Adelante

The Adelante Mission

To inspire forward movement in the lives of the diverse people of the community, by promoting a deeper understanding and respect for cultural differences and similarities; by empowering young people to realize their unlimited potential; and by protecting our seniors, and those with special needs, while improving their quality of life.

A History of Dedication

In 1966,a group of local Hispanic citizens realized a need for a stronger cultural presence. Adelante of Suffolk County, Inc., was born. What began as a social organization quickly grew into what Adelante has become today: an active provider of vital services to community seniors, youth and persons with special needs. Even after decades of dedication, our work has only just begun.
