What to Expect
The Summit will include two full-days of informative and engaging plenary sessions and panel discussions that center immigrant voices and showcase intersectionality across issues. Topics will include economic, health and educational equity, racial solidarity, nonprofit sustainability, and more. There will also be intentional opportunities for networking and connecting, including meals.
The Summit also serves as the annual release of the State of Immigrants in Los Angeles County (SOILA) report by the USC Equity Research Institute (ERI). The report will unveil data on how immigrants in LA County are faring to refocus the attention on how key players in Los Angeles can continue advancing a pro immigrant agenda. Both the Summit and the SOILA report are a collaborative effort between the California Community Foundation, the USC ERI, the Council on Immigrant Inclusion, and the Immigrants Are LA coalition, that includes stakeholders from business, labor, community-based organizations, local government, funders, and other sectors.
