Ricardo & Ana Maria Bagnuoli-The Growing Bridge: How to Reach and Support the Hispanic Community (even if you don't speak Spanish)

The Hispanic community is one of the fastest-growing demographics, yet many organizations remain hesitant to engage due to the language barrier. In this session, we will demystify outreach by focusing on the "Heart Language" of the community: culture, trust, and relationship. You will learn how to build authentic partnerships, navigate cultural nuances, and provide meaningful support without needing to be bilingual. We will cover practical strategies for communication, identifying key community influencers, and creating inclusive environments that welcome Hispanic families. Leave with a clear plan to expand your reach and make a lasting impact.
