ADVOCACY

Advocacy Day

Join the HNBA in advancing its advocacy priorities!

In fulfillment of our mission, to be The National Voice of the Hispanic Legal Community and to advocate on issues that affect the Latino community, the HNBA hosts Advocacy Day in Washington, DC, each year. This year, HNBA Board of Governors, along with HNBA members from across the country and leaders from affiliated state and local Hispanic bar associations, will gather virtually and in-person in the Nation’s Capital to address issues of common concern to the Hispanic community. Attendees will participate in advocacy efforts before members of Congress and White House officials and will be invited to join in networking activities with government elected and appointed officials.

We encourage your participation as one of our advocates during this important exercise of our fundamental civic rights.
