The familia strives to serve and empower the undergraduate and regional community through charitable events, educational programming, and cultural education. The organization has succeeded in these endeavors by creating campus senators, executive board members, and leaders of college and community service committees.

While the national board oversees the goals of La Hermandad, it is the familia which ultimately represents the organization at its respective campus.
