Abstract: Objective: The purpose of this study explores how Latina/o faculty can serve as advocates for Latino men in a community college. The authors apply Bernal and Aleman's theoretical construct of transformative ruptures to demonstrate how Latina/o faculty choose to actively engage as change agents to support Latino men's experiences in one community college. Methods: Individual semi-structured interviews were conducted with 5 Latina/o community college faculty to explore how their practices created transformative ruptures for Latino men. Results: Findings demonstrate how faculty engaged Latino men by developing mentoring relationships, challenging institutional practices, and advocating that helped to reframe the narratives of Latino men. Conclusion/Contribution: This study highlights practices that community colleges can adopt to challenge institutional norms and practices to create a supportive campus for Latino men.
