What is the Puerto Rican Diaspora Summit?
|
Hurricane Maria caused over $125 billion of dollars in damages to Puerto Rico and left 3.4 million residents without electric power, potable water, and telecommunications. Reconstruction and economic recovery will take over a decade.
The Puerto Rican Diaspora Summit - Washington DC is a two-day conference that will provide a space for the discussion of policy issues and the articulation of community response from the perspective of Puerto Ricans in the National Capital region and other stakeholders. |
