Welcome to OLAA's website

 

 

The Oregon Latino Agenda for Action (OLAA) is an effort convened by Oregon Consensus of Portland State University to bring together a broad range of representatives from the Latino community throughout Oregon to collaborate in developing an "Oregon Latino Agenda for Action." OLAA is planning to hold a Summit in Salem on October 17th and 18th of 2010 as a platform to establish statewide strategic priorities for meeting the over-arching needs of the growing number of Latino families in Oregon.
