Latino Parity Task Force

The CLCF has partnered with 4 key Hispanic professional organizations: the Association of Latino Professionals for America (ALPFA), Hispanic Lawyers Association of Illinois (HLAI), Prospanica (formerly known as National Society of Hispanic MBAs), and the Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers (SHPE), to strategically mobilize and empower their existing talent pools. This dynamic group of professionals bring a variety of skills sets and experiences from multiple industries. Their leadership and knowledge are key in forming a successful cadre of applicants for the Leadership Academy. Professionals seeking letters of recommendation for the Leadership Academy are encouraged to engage with any or all of these organizations.
