Launched in 2016, this annual summit was created to provide a platform for Latinas to come together and share their experiences, learn from each other, and empower each other to drive social change.

The first Latinas LEAD Power Summit was held in Denver, Colorado, and brought together over 150 Latinas from across the state. The summit featured keynote speakers, workshops, and panels on a range of topics, including leadership development, career advancement, and social justice.

Since then, the Latinas LEAD Power Summit has grown in size and impact. Each year, the summit attracts more attendees and features more diverse and dynamic presenters. The summit has also expanded beyond Denver to other parts of Colorado, providing Latinas from across the state with the opportunity to participate in this important event.
