Papers generated by Nicolau during her tenure as Program Officer at the Ford Foundation, including important documentation chronicling the development of the Southwest Council of La Raza, the controversies surrounding the Mexican American Youth Organization, and the Nixon administration crisis concerning bribery and influence brokering between federal employees and grant applicants from Hispanic community organizations. While the collection is primarily concerned with the formation of specifically Hispanic grant programs, other minority groups and public policy objectives are also represented. As a whole, these documents provide insight on the changing philanthropic goals of the Ford Foundation from the late 1960s through early 1980s, as well as the diversity of the applicants themselves.
