Somos has stood shoulder to shoulder with the people of Puerto Rico since our inception 40 years ago. As the leading organization in New York State advocating for and empowering the millions of Latino voices throughout the Empire State, Somos has always committed, along with our partners in the New York State Legislature, to support Puerto Rico. From providing hurricane relief and combating the effects of devastating climate change to directly supporting small businesses and community organizations on the island, we've been there and will continue to be.
Our upcoming annual conference in Puerto Rico includes New York's top decision-makers and legislative workshops focused specifically on sustainability, where panelists discuss innovative, actionable solutions to the challenges these communities face. The most effective way to understand and amplify a community's needs is to go directly to them.
