Latino Unity Day celebrates a remarkable 15-year journey of advocacy, empowerment, and unity within the Latino community. Founded to elevate Latino voices and address vital issues, this annual gathering has grown into a powerful platform for community leaders, allies, and advocates to connect, learn, and inspire change.
Latino Unity Day is a day and a half of community, advocacy, and impact. On the first day, participants attend sessions, conducted by advocates and community organizations, on specific bills and budget asks that are advocating with the General Assembly. On the second day, will hear from members of the IL Legislative Latino Caucus on their priorities, we will organize panels on how community organizations, government, and philanthropy are responding to federal threats, and we conduct legislative meetings to help push initiatives before the end of the legislative session.
If you are member of an advocacy organization, an association, a community-based organization, a state employee, a community leader or an individual that cares about Latino equity and civic engagement, Latino Unity Day is for you!
Latino Unity Day is growing and so is the cost of hosting the event. For that reason, we are asking for a $25 contribution. Clients of community providers and students can attend for free. If you plan to invite any, please reach out to jmarco-paredes@latinopolicyforum.org to receive a promo code and we will gladly waive the fee for them.
Yes, please note that for unforeseen circumstances beyond our control we have changed the hotel block to the Crowne Plaza Springfield, at the same rate of $119 + taxes per night. However, the room block is full and we have been able to open more rooms at the Holiday Inn Springfield (same parking lot). Please book you room now, as space is limited using this link. The group code is C6L.
Unfortunately, the organization of the event does not offer any transportation to Springfield, IL. On day 1, all the activities, except the evening reception, will take place at the Crowne Plaza. On day 2, we are working to help those arriving by train get from the Crowne Plaza to the Bank of Springfield Convention Center by 8am.
