Reflecting & Rejoicing Celebrating 60 Years of Impact »

About Our Initiative

The Unity Council, in partnership with Galeria de la Raza, is convening 10 Latinx-led organizations across the Bay Area to strengthen the power building and advocacy infrastructure of Latinx serving organizations in the region. Over the coming months the Latinx cohort will engage in strategic meetings to learn, share, and launch their work in collective partnership. Powered by a $3 million dollar investment by The San Francisco Foundation, the Bay Area Latinx Regional Power Building Initiative has two objectives:

  1. To align around a collective purpose and agenda that strengthens the power building and advocacy infrastructure of these Latinx-led organizations, and
  2. To increase organizational capacity to build power and advocate across the region on a set of collectively identified opportunities
