2019 Amplify Conference: Claiming Our Power

We invite you to join us for the 3rd Amplify Conference: Claiming Our Power on June 1, 2019. On this day, we will come together and join forces with Latinx leaders from diverse sectors, Latinx-led community organizations and power-building groups from across Massachusetts. This is an opportunity to build new relationships, strengthen existing partnerships and develop the Latinx Power Coalition for the Commonwealth and beyond. As the Latinx population in Massachusetts continues to grow and drive our economy, Latinx leadership is lagging behind. Bold action and structural change are crucial to claim our power and have a voice in decision making impacting the Latinx community.

What To Expect:

The Amplify Conference will convene over 350 Latinx leaders across multiple sectors, including political leaders, community organizers, business executives, cultural leaders and the artistic community to recognize our Latinx elected leaders and develop an understanding of the State of the Latinx Community in Massachusetts. Through our keynote speakers, Firestarter storytellers, interactive workshops, and closing social reception, participants will build powerful partnerships and relationships that amplify our work.

During this convening we will begin to:

BUILD a sustainable coalition of Latinx leaders and organizations that support our Amplify Latinx mission of increasing Latino civic engagement, leadership representation, and economic opportunity;

DEVELOP a diverse leadership pipeline who will challenge the status quo and advance the priority issues of the Amplify Latinx coalition;

IDENTIFY key policy issues for the Massachusetts Latino community that will become part of an Amplify Latinx shared policy agenda for Latino upward mobility.
