Although Latinos make up nearly 20 percent of the US population, they hold less than 2 percent of all local, state, and federal elected and appointed offices. LatinasRepresent, an initiative of the National Hispanic Leadership Agenda (NHLA), is on a mission to change this reality by working to increase Latina civic engagement and political representation in the US. Join Ramona as she speaks with Stephanie Gabriela Lopez, program manager at LatinasRepresent, about her work to inform, inspire, and prepare Latinas to step into their power to transform society.
