I believe that every human being has a purpose, and that the work we do must always be driven by an asset-based mindset—one that sees the strengths, resilience, and potential within each person.

Hispanas Organized for Political Equality (HOPE) and City National Bank brought together Latina leaders in Whittier for an intimate roundtable to discuss economic security and key issues to advance justice and equity for Latinas. Key takeaways from our conversation: 1️⃣ Intentionality is vital in creating spaces that meet the diverse needs of our Latina/o community. Community hubs can make a huge impact. 2️⃣ The wealth gap for Latinas is still growing despite strides in education, business ownership, and homeownership. There’s more work ahead for true equity. 3️⃣ Removing barriers to success requires strong partnerships and community efforts! #HOPELatinas #LatinaLeadership #WhittierCommunity Thank you to City National Bank for your partnership in creating space for leaders and entrepreneurs to come together and find solutions to the challenges facing our communities.
