The PRCC promotes the principles of self-actualization, self-determination, and self-reliance for the Puerto Rican/Latino community through the study, recovery, and celebration of Puerto Rican culture. These efforts are undertaken through the publication of a community-based newspaper, educational programs, public arts, mural projects, and other cultural initiatives. The PRCC, in collaboration with other affiliates, has also played a key role in human rights campaigns, including the defense of political prisoners, the struggle for peace in Vieques, the advocacy for undocumented immigrants, and the fight against the criminalization of youth.
