In many communities Hispanic finance professionals are underrepresented when compared to the larger population. As part of GFOA's commitment to diversity and ongoing efforts to build thriving communities, we have partnered with the Local Government Hispanic Network. Together we share important goals to encourage professional excellence among Hispanic/Latino local government administrators, to improve the management of local government, to provide unique resources to Hispanic local government executives and public managers, and to advance the goals of professional, effective and ethical local government administration.

Attend this session to discuss opportunities for Hispanic leadership development at GFOA. Speakers will profile programs available from LGHN and GFOA and highlight careers of leading Hispanic finance officers and local government leaders to provide lessons learned and strategies that can be applied for anyone looking to better serve their community and profession.
