"Poder de la Mujer '' is what all Hermanas strive to embody, both as individual women and as an organization. The motto symbolizes the strength and will of each and every Hermana in their quest for higher education, the empowerment of their families and communities, as well as equality in education, the workplace and the rest of society.
“During the birth of HaU, affirmative action was very prevalent in our schools. We not only faced the challenges of leaving our families but also, we were looked upon as if we were not good enough to be there. HaU was born with the idea that it would provide Latinas a place to find support and acceptance and, through a mutual path of higher education, build bonds that would surpass our years on campus” – Zuleyka Heredia-Jinks
