Latinx Families in the Golden State

Lunchtime Forum

We’re improving the SPUR event registration process.
SPUR has launched a new ticketing system and we're asking you to register for each event that you're planning to attend. This will help us keep you informed of any changes that may occur and enable us to better tailor our programming to your interests.


Although California’s economy continues to grow, many Latinx families are being left behind. A new report from the Insight Center, Latinx Families in the Golden State: When Working Hard Isn’t Enough, indicates that more than half of all Latinx families across the state are struggling to pay for housing, food and utilities, despite working full-time at one or more jobs. What are the causes of this systemic inequity and what policy solutions can be designed to address these issues? Join us for an exploration of the report’s findings and a discussion about solving these profound challenges.
