How Alicia Nuñez Shaping Better Business Community
Alicia Nuñez, President and CEO of Chicanos Por La Causa (CPLC), has been making a significant impact on community development and business. She became the first woman to lead the organization, which is one of the largest nonprofit groups in the U.S. focused on economic development, education, and housing. Under her leadership, CPLC has grown tremendously, managing various projects aimed at supporting underserved communities.
Nuñez has been pivotal in CPLC’s expansion and service reach, ensuring the nonprofit’s mission of combating discrimination and improving opportunities for marginalized groups.
Recently, Nuñez has overseen several community projects, including the groundbreaking of a mixed-use development in Mesa, Arizona. The project, known as The Residences on Main, will provide nearly 200 affordable housing units and retail spaces. This $80 million development reflects her commitment to bringing both social and economic opportunities to low-income communities. CPLC continues to play a crucial role in creating sustainable housing solutions across the Southwest under her leadership.
Núñez is also deeply involved in empowering young people and women in leadership. She emphasises the importance of mentoring and supporting future generations, believing that diversity in leadership and inclusivity is key to driving meaningful change. Her focus on fostering education and leadership development aligns with CPLC’s broader goal of creating lasting community impact.
