Luis Antezana
Founder and CEO
One day in October 2019, Luis remembers sitting in his car outside a school, debating whether or not he should go into the Ed Tech competition he signed up to pitch Juntos Community. “My idea is stupid. People like me don’t do these things. They’re hard.” and then he remembered what his parents did: they left their home country to migrate to a new country where they don’t speak the language, and know nobody. “Now that’s hard. This is going to be a place where we all speak the same language, and talk about education and helping other people, now that’s easy.” Luis got out of his car and the rest is Juntos.

We offer Advocacy, a program that empowers undocumented individuals to thrive financially and professionally by providing education and resources, collecting community data and advocating for expanded professional opportunities and reform of federal immigration laws for undocumented individuals with and without DACA.

The Advocacy program is leading the Safety, Not Status campaign to fight for legislative change in 2026 to remove background check barriers for undocumented individuals.
RUN & WALK CLUB
Community Well-being Space for Movement
Our Run & Walk Club was created out of a need for our communities to find joy, stay healthy, and be in community. Training and prepping together has been a wonderful encouraging and supportive space to be in. We've now completed several marathons together including the the Hero's Journey Run, Broncos 7k, The Denver Colfax Marathon, and more to come!
