OLAA Mission Statement: 

The Organization of Latin American Affairs, referred to as OLAA, is a cultural organization of Boston College. Its purpose is to articulate and promote the needs and goals of the Latinos at Boston College and to foster and encourage an attitude of academics, religious beliefs, and social awareness. It intends to further the interest of the Latinx community in greater Boston and the United States. It incorporates the use of bilingual and bi-cultural knowledge in providing exposure of the college experience to Latinx communities, through community service, political action, social justice, and social awareness. It strives for the unification of Latinos, not only in the Boston College community but also in other academic institutions and throughout the world.
