There are 62 million Latinos in the U.S playing a vital role in the nation’s economic, political and social spheres. As the fastest growing minority group, Latinos are expected to reach a quarter of the population by 2050. The well being of 25% of our nation is a determining factor in its prosperity.

This is a critical moment to push further and do more to empower Latino communities.

At RDF, we are seizing the moment. In 2023, we embarked on a journey to shape our strategic framework for the future, beginning with introspection and deep listening. We engaged a wide array of stakeholders – existing and former clients, UnidosUS affiliates, other non-profits, philanthropic partners, investors, board members and staff – to examine our strengths and weaknesses. We asked questions, leaned in, and created a space to share ideas, thoughts, and dreams for the future. The output is a strategic framework to be rolled out in Fiscal Year 2024.

While we spent time crafting our future, we were still very much in the present, getting important deals across the finish line.
