Attention Student Leaders - If interested in the opportunity below, please email me back so I can send you both additional information and a registration link. Thanks in advance and I apologize for such a lengthy email. I’m happy to share that the office of the NYS Assemblymember Marcos Crespo has once again invited CUNY to participate in the NYS Somos Collegiate Summit The SOMOS Conferences, held twice yearly, serve as a platform for legislators, scholars, business and labor leaders to address various concerns pertinent to this community. Thought-provoking workshops on key issues, such as business development, health, and education, recruit support on new and existing legislation aimed to address the needs of the Hispanic population of New York. Additionally, SOMOS, Inc. empowers youths with scholarships that encourage furthering their education; college internships to promote retention; and apprenticeships to introduce newly graduated adults into the public, nonprofit, labor, and private sectors. The organization aims to create opportunities for Hispanic youth that will facilitate their professional development, growth, and future success. (Day trip: March 8, 2019) in Albany, New York.
