It's well-known that the new Census shows tremendous growth of the Hispanic population-a 43 percent increase, reaching a total of 50.5 million. But what's the story behind the numbers, and what does it mean for funders? In some states, especially in the South, the Latino population has more than doubled. How can funders support these fast-growing Latino communities, where the Latino nonprofit sector is often relatively small or nascent? In California and four Southwestern states, more than one in four residents is Latino, including 40 percent or more of all children. With these changes showing potential for both increased Latino political power and increased xenophobia, how can funders respond?

 

Join this discussion with demographer Leo Estrada, Associate Professor at UCLA, and a panel of local and national funders including Tara Sandercock, HIP board member and Vice President of The Community Foundation of Greater Greensboro; Cristóbal J. Alex, Program Officer for Democratic Participation at The Ford Foundation; Catherine Marsh, Executive Director of the Westchester Community Foundation; and Dolores E. Roybal, Executive Director of the Con Alma HEALTH Foundation.
