The ingenuity and opportunity in our Golden State is characterized by the countless contributions of Latinx leaders in California history. From our state’s earliest Mexican-American Governors, the critical agricultural labor that helps feed our nation, the influence of California’s Mexican-Americans in the Civil Rights Movement, to the visionary Facebook and Instagram Latinx tech co-founders in the Silicon Valley, Latinx are part of California’s history and will determine California’s future.
More Latinx students are graduating from high school prepared for college, but lag behind White students — especially in the opportunity to be college ready.
On Monday, November 12 th ,  the Campaign for College Opportunity will release the State of Higher Education for Latinx in California , a report that provides comprehensive data on the current state of college access and completion for Latinx in our state and what it means for our economy.
 
For an overview of the   report, register for our webinar  on November 12 th  at 11:00 a.m. PST. State and national experts will address some of the greatest barriers that Latinx students in California face and will share recommendations to ensure the success of Latinx students.
Featured speakers include:
