Together with co-hosts Colaborando Juntos (CJ) and the Virginia Latino Higher Education Network (VALHEN), our American Red Cross, Greater Richmond Chapter, as well as a number of other Virginia Chapters, would like to request your assistance in letting others know about the forum; and opportunity, as Sindy Benavides , Deputy Director of Constituent Services & Latino Liaison for Governor Kaine noted, for mainstream Virginians to learn about, in a non-partisan way, our Virginia Latino community.

In addition to presentations of recent studies, including the pilot project’s survey results related to disaster prevention and preparedness and the underlying causes of immigration, students from across the state will showcase their experience in going door-to-door in diverse communities.
