Start a LLEAD Chapter

LLEAD chapters are established with the assistance of the State LLEAD Board of Directors. They follow bylaws established and approved by the LLEAD State Board.  They can be reviewed here. Please contact Alberto Flores with your interest to organize community members into a chapter. 

To begin your LLEAD chapter

State LLEAD encourages local communities to explore the opportunity to engage in Latinx advocacy.  LLEAD provides training and support for effective leadership and advocacy for adults, college and high school students. LLEAD’s Article V of the organizational Bylaws states:
