Learn more about the Salvadoran people’s reality and social transformation in El Salvador.  For the first time in 188 years, the Salvadoran people have a President and Vice-President that do not represent the interests of 14 elite wealthy families.  The Legislative Assembly is still under control of elite and obscure interests that block some of the potential changes that the Salvadoran people are demanding.  Only with organization and participation of the grassroots will real social change be possible in El Salvador.  Accompany the Salvadoran people in their struggle for social and economic justice and build global solidarity.  Join CIS in one of our special programs.
