Latino Leadership Council

The Latino population has experienced unprecedented growth in recent years. More than 60 million Latinos live, work and raise families in the United States, yet they continue to be underrepresented in the movement to empower end-of-life choices. Our Latino Leadership Council wants to change that. We’re inviting public opinion leaders, community organizers, medical professionals and celebrities to help us engage this community to build stronger advocacy coalitions across the country.
