Since 1998 DC’s Latino community has organized Saturday morning community meetings at various non-profit centers and pondered ‘The Latino Agenda’, usually during years with important local and/or national elections.

Our special guest in the first of these informal coffee-&-donut meetings was Nick Majett, Director of the Department of Consumer & Regulatory Affairs (DCRA).
