The 2007 NCLR Annual Conference 
Miami Beach Convention Center, July 21, 2007 - July 24, 2007

The National Council of La Raza (NCLR) is thrilled to hold this year’s Annual Conference in Miami, Florida! With the most recent U.S. Census polls reporting that more than 60% of Miami’s two million residents are Hispanic, Miami is the perfect venue for NCLR’s 2007 Annual Conference and Latino Expo USA. 

This multicultural metropolis has it all – a thriving Latino community, a rich social and cultural life, a strong job market, top-notch universities, the highest Hispanic college enrollment in the nation, and a Hispanic political representation poised to put the interests of the American people first. 

This “Magic City” is not only one of our community’s true political and economic success stories, it is also one of the most exhilarating and vibrant cities in the world. NCLR is delighted to host this year’s Annual Conference in this Latino mosaic of unity, diversity, and culture.

See you in Miami!

The CALR Delegation will leave Philadelphia Airport on July 20th and will return on July 25.  Email TheCALR@hotmail.com with all inquiries.
