Webinar: Advancing Education & Workforce Outcomes for Detroit’s Latino/Hispanic Community

For Detroit to succeed as a thriving city where residents are meeting their unique needs and fully participating in the region’s economy, attention must be paid to ensuring that the equity gaps that exist for community members are closed. At 7.5% of Detroit’s population, its Latino/Hispanic community is poised to transform the city’s and region’s economy, if collective efforts are taken to address systemic education and workforce barriers to closing their wealth and income gap.

Detroit Future City’s (DFC) new brief, “Prosperidad Económica: Education and Workforce Outcomes for Detroit’s Latino/Hispanic Community,” sheds light on disparities across critical equity issues related to education and workforce in Detroit’s Latino/Hispanic community. The brief also offers several recommendations/calls-to-action for improving education and workforce outcomes for the future Latino/Hispanic workforce.

“DFC’s State of Economic Equity report uncovered some distinct challenges Latino/Hispanic Detroiters are facing, and we wanted to dig deeper into this data to bring attention to where this significant community stands within the growth of our city,” said Anika Goss, DFC CEO. “With the immense contributions Latino/Hispanic Detroiters provide to Detroit’s cultural and economic fabric, it’s critical to understand and address how we can ensure this community can fully participate in the city’s growth.”

Join us on Wednesday, August 7th to learn more about the findings from the brief and a community conversation to explore actionable ideas, solutions, and innovations that can support cross sector solutions to provide more equitable outcomes for Latino/Hispanic Detroiter’s.

Register Today at www.detroitfuturecity.com

This special webinar will be moderated by EL CENTRAL Hispanic News Managing Editor Robert Dewaelsche and will feature panelists Stephanie Lopez-Gilmore, MANA de Metro Detroit; Consuela Barber-Lopez, Commissioner, Latino Hispanic Commission of Michigan and Veronica Sanchez Peavey, Sr. Vice President, Adult Services & Regional Director, SER Metro Detroit
