HACU joins the NHLA’s 2012 Public Policy Agenda

The Hispanic Association of Colleges and Universities (HACU) joined with 29 other leading Latino organizations in releasing the National Hispanic Leadership Agenda’s (NHLA) 2012 Public Policy Agenda, a comprehensive document addressing critical issues facing the Latino community and the nation as a whole.

Some of the most pressing concerns shared by HACU and NHLA are: the enactment of comprehensive immigration reform and the DREAM Act; the incorporation of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education along the educational pipeline; and increased funding and support of Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs).

HACU was represented by Serena Davila at the NHLA news conference. To view video of C-SPAN’s coverage on the release of the agenda, click here.






  

The Hispanic Association of Colleges and Universities, founded in 1986, represents more than 500 colleges and universities in the United States, Latin America, Spain, and school districts throughout the U.S. HACU is the only national association representing existing and emerging Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs). The Association’s headquarters are in San Antonio, Texas, with regional offices in Washington, D.C. and Sacramento, California.
