Latina Wealth Forum: Building Economic Power in the Bay Area

In Person Event

March 26, 2026

Summary

LatinoProsperity convened more than 50 Latina leaders, practitioners, and advocates in Oakland to examine the structural barriers Latinas face and the bold strategies needed to build lasting economic power. Hosted by Communities United for Restorative Youth Justice (CURYJ), the morning moved from research to real conversation — with breakout sessions spanning homeownership and assets, AI and economic resilience, immigration, and entrepreneurship and access to capital.

We are deeply grateful to our partners and funders for making this event possible: The James Irvine Foundation, The California Wellness Foundation, PNC Bank, Latino Community Foundation, PICO California, Mission Economic Development Agency, and The San Francisco Foundation.
