We're back in 2021 with great events!

On January 28, 2021 from 9 a.m. until noon, MVLA hosted a workshop of the Upstate Latino Summit via Zoom. This event focused on Community Advocacy and Engagement and we spoke about ways to increase people's involvement in issues and causes that matter to them.

Education ​Our Upstate Latino Summit that took place on June 24, 2021 was a total success. We had the opportunity to listen to what leaders around our community and state had to say about their experiences in the education industry. During this event we spoke about the struggles that latinos and immigrant populations face regarding traditional and non traditional education, and ways that these challenges could be addressed.

Thank you to everyone who attended and participated in the event. A special thanks to the speakers, moderators, MC, the organization committee and our sponsors. 

See you in our next virtual workshop on The Asian Community on Sep 23, 2021.
