Annual LULAC Conference Hits Pima West


Approximately 2,000 middle and high school students will attend the 21st annual Southern Arizona youth LULAC conference this Monday and Tuesday.

The League of United Latin American Citizens hosts the conference in partnership with Pima Community College and the Southern Arizona Institute of Leadership on Monday and Tuesday from 8 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at PCC's West Campus, 2202 W. Anklam Road.

The conference featured workshops aimed at helping kids stay in school, a positive thinking concert urging kids not to do drugs and presentations from local businesses and colleges.

According to a Tucson Police Department representative, "These kids are our future, they are the ones who will be paying taxes and working in a couple years. We are here to encourage them to help protect our community."
