LatinoJustice PRLDEF's Annual Awards Gala brought together trailblazing advocates and allies who are driving justice and equity forward, and honored the meaningful contributions of community leaders making a real difference. Together, we raised vital support to stand for justice, strengthen communities, and shape our future. It was a night to honor our shared efforts and connect with fellow leaders and changemakers.

LatinoJustice PRLDEF hosts an Law Day Fair every Fall to connect scores of pre-law students from a variety of backgrounds and life experiences with dozens of law schools from across the country.    The day-long event includes workshops, and presenters as well as opportunities to network with law school representatives and other law professionals.

Over the past two decades, LAWbound® empowered more than 600 aspiring legal professionals, breaking down barriers to law school and opening doors to careers in public interest, corporate, and in-house law.Alumni, legal leaders, and our vibrant LatinoJustice familia came together for an unforgettable evening.
