Support Latina/o Advocacy Day as an event sponsor!
- Join us for the second annual Latina/o Advocacy Day on Sunday and Monday February 24th and 25th, 2008.
- The purpose of Latina/o Advocacy Day is to provide advocacy/lobby training and briefings on current policy issues such as education, immigration, healthcare, civil rights/economic justice to Latinas and Latinos in Colorado.
- By the end of the event, participants learn about the policy issues important to them and actually meet with their legislators, taking a direct role in the policy making process.
The Latina Initiative and Colorado Organization for Latina Opportunity and Reproductive Rights (COLOR) coordinate Latina/o Advocacy Day. Our presenting sponsor for the 2008 LAD is the Gay and Lesbian Fund for Colorado. LAD has many supporting organizations including Colorado Progressive Coalition, Colorado Consumer Health Initiative, Mi Familia Vota, Hispanic Women of Weld County, National Latina Institute for Reproductive Health, National Council of La Raza, Alex Sanchez Consulting, Chic Chicana, Rural Community Resource Center, Mendez, Steadman and Associates, Colorado Immigrant Rights Coalition, Colorado Mountain College, Colorado State University and Compañeros.
