Administrative/Biographical History
Project Adelante was formed in 1970 by M.E.C.H.A. (Movimiento Estudiantil Chicanos de Aztlan) students attending Southern Colorado State College. These students established a "Barrio Station" (as an extension of Chicano Studies) within the Pueblo Sangre de Cristo Housing Projects for the purpose of recruiting youth for college beginning at grade one.
