"From our Roots, Flowers Bloom"
Raíces
The Raices report informs the policy priorities of the Illinois Legislative Latino Caucus across five issue areas that affect the Latino community. Staying true to its core belief, the policy priorities are informed and produced in collaboration with the community and coalition-based organizations.
Our Mission
The Illinois Legislative Latino Caucus Foundation (ILLCF) is a non-partisan and tax-exempt 501(c)(3) organization established in 2002 with three important goals:
-
To empower Illinois Latinos and increase access to federal, state, and community programs in critically important areas;
-
To provide college scholarships for young Latino men and women who need assistance to further their education; and
-
To support the widespread distribution of information on public policy that impacts Illinois Latinos through an annual report on Latinos and the Illinois economy.
The Foundation’s Board of Directors includes Illinois Legislative Latino Caucus members and others from Illinois Latino communities.
