Addressing the Latino Legislative Day

Addressing the Latino Legislative Day

Rafael Lozano, Service Center Program Manager, represented WDVA on a panel for the 11th Annual Latino Legislative Day at the Capitol Campus on February 22, 2016, speaking about veteran’s benefits and entitlements. 

Rafael addressed a packed house of over 500, in both Spanish and English, and stayed throughout the day to answer questions and provide information about state and federal benefits available to veterans and their eligible family members.

Latino Legislative Day is an annual event where participants can participate in civic engagement policy sessions and speak to Legislators regarding issues that may impact Latino communities, such as: Economic Development, Labor, Civil Rights, and Education, Health Care, Small Business, Farm Worker rights, Immigration, Public Safety and Veteran Affairs.
