ILLINOIS LATINO AGENDA
(En español)
The Illinois Latino Agenda is a historic collaborative effort among Latino organizations that seeks to promote accountability in business, government, the private sector, and within the Latino community by leveraging their collective voice and influence.
The Agenda is a broad coalition of city- and suburban-based Latino-serving nonprofits, the largest Latino coalition in the region. Convened by the Latino Policy Forum and MALDEF, the Agenda currently has nearly 50 member organizations. Additional information on Agenda history and principles is available here.
