Where HOPE Works

HOPE is driving national Latina power building through programs, research, and events that empower Latinas across the U.S.  The HOPE Binational Fellowship connects Latina leaders from the U.S. and Mexico to foster international collaboration and leadership development, while the HOPE College Leadership Program offers a hybrid model to train emerging leaders nationwide. Our upcoming National Economic Status of Latinas Report and public opinions polls like the Latina Pulse provide crucial insights into the challenges and opportunities facing Latinas across the country. Virtual events like HOPE Hour and livestreams of our signature events allow Latinas everywhere to engage with our work.

HOPE is headquartered in California, where we lead transformative efforts to empower Latinas through major conferences, leadership programs and research. Flagship events include Latina History Day, Latina Action Day, and Latina Empowerment Day, which connect Latinas across the state to advocate, network, and advance their leadership skills. Statewide Leadership programs like the HOPE Leadership Institute and HOPE Youth Leadership Program empower civic leaders ready to create change. With our Regional Institutes, we are building local hubs of Latina leadership and advocacy in key regions, including Los Angeles, San Diego, the Bay Area, and more. Our research, including the Economic Status of Latinas Report and Equity in Health for Latinas and Black Women reports, shape public discourse and policies that advance Latinas, and our Advocacy drives legislation to improve opportunities statewide.

HOPE is building a Latina leadership pipeline in Texas alongside our Texas-based alumnae by offering programs and events that empower Latinas to thrive in their careers and communities. In 2023, HOPE hosted the inaugural Latina Empowerment Day Texas, providing workshops and networking opportunities to help Latinas develop leadership skills and connect with industry leaders. Looking ahead to 2025, HOPE will expand its impact with a statewide Latina Empowerment Summit in San Antonio and the launch of the Economic Status of Latinas Report for Texas. These initiatives will equip more Latinas with the tools and connections needed to excel, while providing key decision-makers with crucial data to create policies centered on the Latina experience.
