Join the movement and share the facts about who U.S. Latinos truly are.
Why this is needed
Our community is powerful, ambitious, and determined. However, the rhetoric in the workforce, politics, and media does not accurately portray our contributions to the U.S. This misrepresentation affects how we and our families are perceived, impacting our opportunities, school environments, workforce, and more.
But we have the power to share the facts.
