There is a generation coming of age that will help shape what comes next for America. You can see it in the businesses opening on our Main Streets, in the people entering the workforce and in families building their lives in communities across the country.

The United States Hispanic Business Council is proudly nonpartisan. We believe in giving our community the information and access needed to make its own decisions, while encouraging every eligible voter to take part.

As Election Day approaches, take the time to listen, learn about the candidates and consider what their priorities could mean for your family, your business and your community. Think about the future you want to help shape, and when Election Day comes, get out and vote.

Community Spotlight: Comunidades Unidas

For more than 25 years, Comunidades Unidas has been working alongside Latino and immigrant families across Utah, connecting people with resources, developing community leaders and helping individuals advocate for themselves and their communities.

Founded in 1999 by Promotoras, trusted leaders from within the community, Comunidades Unidas has grown to support thousands of Utahns through direct services, community organizing and leadership development. Their work touches health and food access, workers' rights, immigration services, youth leadership and other issues that have a direct impact on the well being of families.

As we continue recognizing the people and organizations strengthening Hispanic communities across the country, the USHBC is proud to highlight the work Comunidades Unidas provides in Utah.

We recently had the opportunity to connect with the Comunidades Unidas team and learn more about their work. We look forward to continuing the conversation and finding ways to support our shared commitment to stronger communities and greater opportunity.
