Latino and Puerto Rican Sub Commission

Latino and Puerto Rican Sub-commission focuses its efforts on issues affecting the Latino and Puerto Rican community in Connecticut by recommending and promoting the economic development, education, health and political well-being of their population. The Sub-Commission accomplishes this goal by researching best practices models, conducting fact-finding hearings, and via partnerships that use a cross-cultural lens to conduct their policy work in the Connecticut General Assembly.
