The Association of Latino Professionals For America (ALPFA), is a national nonprofit membership organization for Latino entrepreneurs, professionals and students. ALPFA is dedicated to enhance the opportunities for Latinos and create more diversity in corporate America: ALPFA “Empowers Latino Leaders” for America.

NOW, at a time when the professional community desperately seeks talent and America’s young Latinos desperately seek opportunity, ALPFA is a bridge between the two resulting in thousands of Latino college students in paid professional internships and careers. ALPFA develops the next generation of Latino professionals via experiential leadership development and mentoring from senior corporate executives, whom we empower into the C-suite and onto corporate boards. ALPFA is also a proven growth accelerator for Latino entrepreneurs, helping them to build networks, access capital, and scale much more rapidly by opening the door to significant business opportunities with our more than 200 Fortune 1000 partners.

ALPFA is a national organization that serves more than 72,000 members, professionals and student members across the country. We encourage our members to volunteer and actively seek hands-on leadership building experiences. ALPFA was established at CSUS since Fall 2014 with 39 members and continues growing. ALPFA’s mission is to empower and develop Latino men and women as leaders of character for the nation, in every sector of the global economy.
