Latino Network of Southern Nevada
The Latino Network of Southern Nevada was created in September 2013 when a steering committee of Latino community leaders designed and conducted an internet survey that asked Latinos to list five issue areas that are important to the community. The results of the survey were categorized into six key areas: arts and culture; education; health and human services; immigration; jobs and economy; and natural and built environment. Improving educational achievement of Latinos is the primary, “North Star” goal of the network. For more information or to get involved, please call 702-229-6242 or email
