LULAC Academy Orientation: Why Young Latina and Latino Voices Matter

5:00 PM

The LULAC Academy is a cornerstone of our movement because it invests in the force of the future—young leaders ready to step up. The Latino experience has always been rooted in fearlessness: the bold decision to leave one’s homeland in search of something better, and the courage to build it. For many Chicanos, this also means reclaiming a heritage long silenced—reviving culture, identity, and pride after generations of erasure. That fearless spirit lives in the next generation, and it’s what will unlock solutions to the persistent challenges facing our communities and so many others. This session will feature key leaders in LULAC who are deeply committed to that mission.
