About this user
In 1991, the United Farm Workers of America, Texas Rural Legal Aid, and the Texas Low Income Housing Information Service came together and organized Proyecto Azteca to respond to the housing crisis in South Texas colonias located in Hidalgo County. In the first year, Proyecto Azteca organized construction with just four families. Over the years, Proyecto Azteca has gradually increased its production rate and its present construction rate is 35 to 60 homes per year. Today, Proyecto Azteca is a nationally recognized, community directed, self-help housing organization that has financed and trained approximately 600 families in construction and first time homeownership in over 50 Hidalgo County colonias.
