2022 LAN Legislative Conference

Registration is now open for the 2022 Latino Action Network Legislative Conference.

RSVP now at: https://lan.nationbuilder.com/lan2022_legislativeconference_registration. Space is limited.

The Latino Action Network’s annual Legislative Conference is the largest gathering of Hispanic community organizers and public policy advocates in the state of New Jersey. The 2020 in-person conference was attended by over 350 activists and elected officials from every corner of our great state. Our 2021 conference was held online due to the pandemic.  Our 2022 conference will also be held virtually.  As we head into this new year, we are looking forward to continuing to address the political and social issues that affect all Latinos living in our communities. 

The conference will take place on Saturday, April 2, 2022 (VIRTUALLY)

REGISTER HERE

The schedule will include a full day’s program, with keynote presentations from federal and state legislators plus dynamic workshops with panels discussing a full array of issues in accordance with our legislative agenda for 2022 and beyond.

These VIRTUAL PANELS will focus on immigration, political empowerment, workers' rights, criminal justice, and many other topics. We are asking those who register to consider attending two of these panels based on their interests and legislative priorities. 

The Latino Action Network is looking forward to your presence during our annual conference, as we work together to advocate for the Latino community all around the state of New Jersey.

This event is hosted by the Latino Action Network (LAN) in collaboration with Latino Action Network Foundation (LANF), a private, non-profit, charitable organization, and the Latino Coalition, a member organization of the Latino Action Network.

RSVP now at: https://lan.nationbuilder.com/lan2022_legislativeconference_registration. Space is limited.
