MISSION - WHAT WE DO

CLASP promotes all facets of Latin American studies nationwide. CLASP fosters global competency, language proficiency and cultural awareness of Latin America and the Caribbean, drawing upon interdisciplinary and area expertise.

VISION - GOALS AND ASPIRATIONS

CLASP encourages excellence in teaching and program development; organizes workshops at national and regional conventions; develops curriculum materials; promotes teaching of less commonly taught languages; recognizes exemplary children’s and young adult literature; and supports K-12 and post-secondary professional development.

SERVICES - HOW WE DO IT

The consortium was administered by a National Steering Committee elected by the members. CLASP was affiliated with the Latin American Studies Association (LASA) and served as the representative body of LASA’s institutional members. All CLASP members received LASA publications, including the Latin American Research Review and the LASA newsletter, at no additional charge above their CLASP dues.
