Latina Action Day® Sacramento
Since 1994, the statewide Latina Action Day conference has elevated the voices and lived experiences of Latinas at policymaking tables. Each year, hundreds of leaders from every region of California gather in Sacramento to engage directly with elected officials, share their perspectives, and shape conversations on policies that impact our communities. Through dynamic town halls, public hearings, and workshops, HOPE creates meaningful opportunities for participants to strengthen their networks, build social capital, and connect across diverse communities. Together, we honor the trailblazing leadership of Latinas while advancing civic engagement and strengthening our democracy for the benefit of all Californians.
