We are thrilled to invite you to an unforgettable day of collaboration, inspiration, and action at the 2025 Latino Action Network Legislative Assembly!
Last year, we brought together over 300 leaders, activists, and elected officials from across New Jersey. This year, we’re excited to build on that energy with another incredible opportunity to engage with community and political leaders on the pressing issues that matter most. The event begins with registration and a continental breakfast, followed by a welcome session featuring key speakers, including LAN President Javier Robles and state and federal legislative leaders.

The morning and afternoon are dedicated to breakout sessions focused on key issues:
- Know Your Rights topics include voting rights, ICE raid defense, human trafficking, affordable housing, reproductive health care, protections for unaccompanied minors, school access regardless of immigration status, health care access, and workers’ rights.
- Collective Well-Being sessions emphasize mental health and community care for marginalized groups, including DACA scholars, LGBTQ+ communities, Afro-Latinos, and Latino men's health.
Additional Highlights:
- Lunch and a resource table fair provide opportunities for networking.
- The afternoon features a NJ Bi-Partisan Gubernatorial Panel to discuss pressing policy issues.
