Description
Join us at Airbnb for an evening celebrating Latinx Heritage month!
We will have a panel discussion with local Latinx leaders, who will share their experiences navigating the workplace, the roads they traveled to get there, and how they broke through biases with a “¡Sí Se Puede!” mindset.
There will be food, drinks and the opportunity to ask questions, meet new friends, connect with other talented Latinx, and learn more about how we can strengthen our Latinx community.
Hope you can join us!
We will have LUS (Latinos Unidos Siempre) Youth Organization onsite sharing a bit of what they do in the community. LUS is an Oregon Latinx organization working towards the educational, political and cultural development of underrepresented youth and enabling them to take leadership roles in the community.
