We are proud to announce that our CEO, Chris Iglesias, has been appointed to the Board of Directors of UnidosUS—the nation’s largest and most influential Latino civil rights and advocacy organization.
This historic appointment is more than a personal milestone—it is a testament to the power and impact of our work in Fruitvale, Oakland, and beyond. It means that The Unity Council will now have a voice at the national table, shaping conversations that affect Latino communities across the country.
As a member of the UnidosUS Board, Chris will help guide a movement that has spent over 50 years advancing equity, dignity, and opportunity for millions of Latinos. His leadership will not only elevate our mission—it will connect us to a national network of resources, policy expertise, and partnerships that will strengthen our ability to serve our community.
We are honored to be part of this next chapter with UnidosUS and remain committed to advancing economic and social equity in everything we do. This moment belongs to all of us—our staff, our partners, and the resilient community we proudly serve.
