Why Get involved
Our Club has grown into a meaningful force for civic engagement because of you—your membership, your voice, your commitment, and your willingness to show up when it matters.
Together, we are expanding civic participation, registering and educating voters, developing the next generation of Latino leaders, and ensuring that the issues affecting our families and communities remain part of the public conversation. In today’s political environment, that work has never been more important.
But representation alone is not enough. A community must also have the organization, resources, leadership, and infrastructure necessary to make its voice heard. That kind of lasting civic power has always been built the same way: people coming together, investing in their institutions, developing leaders, and staying engaged for the long haul.
In California, Latinos represent more than 40% of the state’s population and are the largest demographic group shaping California’s future. More than 8 million Latino voters are eligible to participate in California, with hundreds of thousands of young Latinos reaching voting age each year. Nationally, Latinos have become the country’s largest minority voting bloc.
Those numbers represent more than potential. They represent responsibility, opportunity, and a voice that deserves to be heard.
Your membership and active participation help transform demographic growth into meaningful civic engagement. It allows Avance to educate voters, cultivate leadership, organize communities, and build the infrastructure necessary to ensure Latino voices remain present in the rooms where decisions are made.
Our goal is not simply to participate in the future being created around us. It is to help shape it.
And that work begins with all of us.
