Liderazgo con Ganas: Passion, Purpose, and Perseverance

Join us at the Kennewick Three Rivers Convention Center for an inspiring day of learning, connection, and leadership development. This year, we are thrilled to feature Montserrat Garibay—former Assistant Deputy Secretary at the U.S. Department of Education under Miguel Cardona and current candidate for the Texas House representing the Austin area—as our keynote speaker. She will be joining us for two days of connection and recharging, bringing a powerful voice that embodies equity, empowerment, and advocacy in education and our communities.
