ABOUT
HOPE's 32nd Annual Latina History Day® Conference brings together hundreds of women in Downtown Los Angeles to recognize and celebrate the historic and current achievements of Latinas, while embracing the rich diversity of the Latina experience. Join us for forums and workshops on career advancement, current community issues, and financial empowerment. Get inspired and energized by our keynote speakers and make connections with Latina leaders and small business owners at our Comadre Network.
Our 2023 theme – BLOOM: COME INTO YOUR OWN – invites you to step into your full power, to show up, and embrace who you are, wherever you are in your journey.
For 32 years, HOPE has been instrumental in securing local, county, state, and congressional officials to declare the second Friday in March during Women's History Month as Latina History Day ®. Join us as we make Latina History together!
