Book excerpt: Governor Kean mentions Mr. Joe Morales, Mr. Santana, the Chairman of the Board of the Puerto Rican Organization for Community Education and Economic Development, better known as PROCEED. A small nonprofit corporation, PROCEED had modest goals: to establish an orientation center, carry out educational activities, and promote the general welfare of Puerto Ricans in the Elizabeth area. PROCEED now serves all that seek and qualify for services, regardless of race, nationality, ethnicity, religion, disability, or sexual orientation. It has expanded its programs, which range from preschool centers to a transitional home for men living with HIV/AIDS and counseling programs for those struggling with abuse and addiction. PROCEED has also embarked on a national endeavor to provide linguistically and culturally appropriate capacity building services to other organizations around the country and in the U.S. territories of Puerto Rico and the USA Virgin Islands.
