The Latino Summit 2010: Improving the Lives of Nevadans

 summit

The Latino Summit 2010: Improving the Lives of Nevadans offers an opportunity for local and national Latino leaders to discuss and collaborate on a range of issues affecting Nevada’s Hispanic community. Latinos make up a quarter of Nevada’s population and now is a critical time to address the unique issues that face this community. The Latino Summit will discuss a host of issues affecting Nevada’s Latino community, including education, immigration, health care and job creation. In addition, our discussions will address topics that may not always get the attention they deserve, such as juvenile justice, domestic violence, and the need for an accurate Census count.
