"It was inspiring to be surrounded by other Latinas navigating their professional journey and gain more insight into how I can leverage my skills and cultural background to bring a unique approach to the work that I do."

 

"The MDH program shifted my perspective in the workplace because it provided information that I was not afforded anywhere else with a lens that I could relate. I loved it so much that I decided to join the board and begin my career transition."

 

"I completed the Mujeres de HACE leadership program in the Fall of 2020 and since then I have been empowered to take more initiative in my career advancement. I learned to embrace my strengths through the insights test."
