Season of Giving

The Forum’s work helps protect some of the most vulnerable groups in the Latino community: Children and immigrants. You can help protect them too by making a tax-deductible DONATION to the Forum today.

We’ll soon begin a period that promises to be the most anti-Latino in our nation's history, sprouting federal policies that could negatively impact Latino families and rip across the fabric of America. As one of only a handful of comprehensive Latino policy and advocacy organizations in the nation, the Forum plays a key role in guiding and empowering Latinos to shape a better future for all of Illinois.

The Forum believes that Latino families can thrive and prosper in Illinois.  Achieving economic prosperity starts with an improved public education system, safe and affordable housing conditions and immigration policies that keep families together and provide a pathway to citizenship.  The Forum’s policy work, its Multicultural Leadership Academy and its parent engagement program – Abriendo Puertas – are helping families every day.  Recently, a parent from Abriendo Puertas remarked that the Forum “opened her eyes” to a better future for her children.

Help shape the future for all Latinos by making a DONATION. Your generosity is greatly appreciated.
