Primos is a mentoring organization that pairs young Latino students with Latino professionals. We primarily serve students in the Southeast Dallas area of Pleasant Grove (75217 & 75227 zip codes).
Primos means cousin in Spanish. The goal of Primos is to foster an authentic family-like relationship between mentors, mentees, parents, and our organization. This concept of family allows our community to grow and navigate life together.
We connect students with a mentor and providing programming for both students & parents via workshops and training. Primos monthly events center around our mission of preparing students to be College, Career, and Life Ready. We also link students to internships, job shadowing opportunities, and provide scholarships.

Primos empower students and their families to tackle any challenge through mentoring and exposure opportunities.
Even though Primos has worked to increase the number of students participating in the program, more work still needs to be done. Knowing there is a direct relationship between positive role models and collegiate success, Primos seeks to fill the mentor guidance gap by carefully choosing mentors dedicated to helping with the overall mission.
Primos Dallas works to uplift and guide Latinx, 1st generation, and underserved communities through our mentoring and programming.
