The Latina History Day conference, for which Latina History Day in California was created, draws over 600 women to celebrate the historic accomplishments of Latinas and partake in forums on corporate advancement, the state of public education, and financial empowerment.

Scheduled annually on the second Friday of March, Latina History Day is the only conference in Los Angeles that is designed specifically to meet the needs of Latina professionals; offering her resources, skills development, and networking opportunities to advance her career.

Through an unparalleled reach into the Latina community, HOPE is able to showcase Latina talent throughout the conference. HOPE secures Latina keynote speakers whose personal and professional experiences resonate with participants and inspire them to strive toward new possibilities. Concurrent workshops are led and moderated by Latina executives, elected officials, academics and other experts in a host of fields including but not limited to finance, corporate culture, philanthropy, community development, education, and health.

The conference schedule also provides a venue during the Comadre Network and Exhibit area for Latina leaders to network amongst themselves and with HOPE’s key sponsors that make the conference possible. Participants can also purchase unique wares through an array of Latina vendors.

Latina History Day consistently garners the support of the Mayor of Los Angeles and the Los Angeles City Council.
