[3] Moreno also directed and founded different cultural groups including Las Cucarachas-Mexcla Teatral and Concilio Mujeres.
[6] Concilio Mujeres opened an office in the San Francisco Mission District, where Moreno acted as a director in 1974 and 1975.
The organization collected material and distributed in an attempt to inform people about the lives of Raza women.
The organization received its seed grant from the Catholic Charities with support from Mrs. S. Castaneda, and struggled to find funding and ultimately disbanded by 1980.
