We, Latina women, we are the ones raising the future. The Latina Symposium was a great opportunity to meet my sisters who daily strive to make a better future for our community and for our children. Together everything is possible.

I learned to value my self even more, it was a day to reaffirm my plans and dreams, I came with no expectations, but the workshops were very inspiring.
Marcela Diaz |
I take with me the feeling of being "home" for a few hours this morning with my "family" that sends me back to my normal life in Seattle but with many more tools and much affection.
