| Regional
Representation
for
Local Community Involvement |
Assuring that PSLC represents the voice
of the community.
In 2002, the PSLC established
four regional committees to meet periodically
to identify and discuss issues and concerns
related to the Latino community
in their geographic areas. In addition
to geographic representation, PSLC established
a student committee to assure that the
views of youth and full-time students
are represented. These committees bring
their perspective and findings on local
issues and concerns to the Board of Directors
for consideration in organizational planning
and development. The chairpersons of the
regional and student committees are charged
with securing broad community representation
in their committees.

| Local Activism
PSLC Cornerstones |
The Regional and Student
Committees are cornerstones of our organization
as activists developing and implementing
a proactive agenda for the political,
social, educational and economic well-being
of Latinos in Pennsylvania. They provide
Latinos of all ages throughout the commonwealth
with opportunities for direct input on
PSLC policy and direction. All interested
community members are encouraged to participate
in the regional and student committees. |
