If you’re at #VLPowerSummit don’t miss The Changemakers Leading the Movement panel up next in which our Legislative Affairs Manager, Ana Maria Rea will be participating alongside a group of other inspiring Latinx leaders! 
“As latinx we’ve had to overcome a lot to be here. We’re here DESPITE the odds.” - Zamira Garcia of @FWDus #VLPowerSummit
“We were doing mainly legal work as an organization and then family separation happened last year and we shifted our focus to really incorporate that advocacy aspect. Because we recognized this wasn’t political anymore it was a human rights issue.” - Ana Maria Rea of RAICES
“A lot of the community we work with DON’T have Twitter, they don’t have social media. That was the opportunity to build an organization that ASKED the community what they needed & didn’t just tell them. And for me that was Dream Big Nevada.” - Astrid Silva #VLPowerSummit
