![Page 4: + Alliant’s Latin@ Achievement Initiative Movilizándonos por Nuestro Futuro San Francisco, CA July 9 &10, 2009.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/56649cc35503460f9498b650/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
+Three Parts to this Presentation
1) Changing Demographics in the United States
2) Alliant’s Latino Achievement Initiative and Activities
3) Recommendations
![Page 5: + Alliant’s Latin@ Achievement Initiative Movilizándonos por Nuestro Futuro San Francisco, CA July 9 &10, 2009.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/56649cc35503460f9498b650/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
+Changing Demographics In the United States
The U.S. has been undergoing a rapid change in the ethnicity and race of its population
Changes vary for each of the 50 states
The most populous states will transform from the majority being White/Euro-Caucasians to mostly people of color, Latinos/Latinas (Latin@s) and African Americans
How do we deal with the changing population and the need for a changing workforce?
![Page 6: + Alliant’s Latin@ Achievement Initiative Movilizándonos por Nuestro Futuro San Francisco, CA July 9 &10, 2009.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/56649cc35503460f9498b650/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
+U.S. Changing Demographic
Among Latin@s in the U.S.
Over 50% of Latin@s drop out of high school
Only 10% of the undergraduates, graduate from universities, are Latin@s (more Latinas then Latinos)
Less than 2% of the 83,000 doctoral members of the American Psychological Association are Latin@s

+A Return to the Past !!
Ironically, the growth of Latin@s in the U.S. is in the west.
Most of those states were once Mexico!
![Page 23: + Alliant’s Latin@ Achievement Initiative Movilizándonos por Nuestro Futuro San Francisco, CA July 9 &10, 2009.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/56649cc35503460f9498b650/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
+Recommended Reading
David E. Hayes-Bautista, Ph.D. (2004) La Nueva California: Latinos in the Golden State. University of California Press, Berkeley and Los Angeles, CA
This is a detailed description of the changing demographics of Latinos in California. The author uses qualitative and quantitative data land describes the past, current and future trends of Latinos in California.
![Page 24: + Alliant’s Latin@ Achievement Initiative Movilizándonos por Nuestro Futuro San Francisco, CA July 9 &10, 2009.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/56649cc35503460f9498b650/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
+Implications
Latin@s are increasing in record numbers in the western part of the U.S.
However, policies affecting Latin@s are based on the east coast where the growth rate is the smallest
This sets up a situation, where policy makers do not sense the change in the U.S. unless they travel to the west of the U.S.
Given the travel restriction of U.S. government workers, U.S. policy is out of touch with this inevitable trend.
![Page 25: + Alliant’s Latin@ Achievement Initiative Movilizándonos por Nuestro Futuro San Francisco, CA July 9 &10, 2009.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/56649cc35503460f9498b650/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
+Maintain the Status Quo?
What if the U.S. educational institutions do nothing?
In a short period of time, 10 years for Texas, the majority of the workforce will be Latin@
All industries are not prepared to manage this linguistic and cultural diversity
There is no pipeline for Latin@s to climb the career path
Meanwhile, mentors and coaches are limited
![Page 26: + Alliant’s Latin@ Achievement Initiative Movilizándonos por Nuestro Futuro San Francisco, CA July 9 &10, 2009.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/56649cc35503460f9498b650/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
+Maintain the Status Quo?
How does this demographic change affect the U.S. economically?
The method for entitlement programs such as social security and medicare are based on contributions from the current workforce.
Latin@s will be the back bone of all of the entitlement programs.
We must elevate the socio-economic statuses of Latinos in order for our economic systems to function.
Higher education is the key to address these issues!
![Page 27: + Alliant’s Latin@ Achievement Initiative Movilizándonos por Nuestro Futuro San Francisco, CA July 9 &10, 2009.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/56649cc35503460f9498b650/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
+What is the Alternative?
The ONLY RECOURSE will be to recruit college graduates and professionals from Latin America
![Page 28: + Alliant’s Latin@ Achievement Initiative Movilizándonos por Nuestro Futuro San Francisco, CA July 9 &10, 2009.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/56649cc35503460f9498b650/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
+The Only Recourse:Recruit from Latin America!
Recruiting from Latin America creates a “brain drain” in those countries
Puerto Rico is already experiencing a serious problem of retention of its work force and are losing its more talented to the main land.
Just as U.S. restrictions were lifted for residents of Asian Countries like India for technical workers, the same will occur for Latin American counties.
This poses a workforce and leadership crisis for Latin America!
This will facilitate more economic problems in Latin America.
In turn, this will further stress the immigration problems regarding undocumented workers.
![Page 29: + Alliant’s Latin@ Achievement Initiative Movilizándonos por Nuestro Futuro San Francisco, CA July 9 &10, 2009.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/56649cc35503460f9498b650/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
+A Time to Respond!
Universities in the U.S. need to address this workforce pipeline problem.
Alliant International University has develop efforts to address these issues in California.
![Page 30: + Alliant’s Latin@ Achievement Initiative Movilizándonos por Nuestro Futuro San Francisco, CA July 9 &10, 2009.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/56649cc35503460f9498b650/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
+The Latin@ Achievement Initiative A Call to Action
In the Spring of 2007 Alliant established a strategic plan to address Latin@ workforce issues.
The Latino Achievement Initiative is under the I-MERIT Office of the University
![Page 31: + Alliant’s Latin@ Achievement Initiative Movilizándonos por Nuestro Futuro San Francisco, CA July 9 &10, 2009.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/56649cc35503460f9498b650/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
+Latin@ Achievement Strategic Plan - Vision
To create an institution that focuses on meeting the higher education needs of Latin@s and Latin Americans in the U.S.
![Page 32: + Alliant’s Latin@ Achievement Initiative Movilizándonos por Nuestro Futuro San Francisco, CA July 9 &10, 2009.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/56649cc35503460f9498b650/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
+Our Mission
The mission of this initiative is to create a university culture characterized by a vibrant Latin@-friendly environment that integrates culturally-sensitive approaches to impart educational experiences in a social setting to enhance the higher educational goals of Latin@ students.
![Page 33: + Alliant’s Latin@ Achievement Initiative Movilizándonos por Nuestro Futuro San Francisco, CA July 9 &10, 2009.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/56649cc35503460f9498b650/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
+Our Educational Philosophy
We will empower students with tools and knowledge to pursue their career and educational objectives. Students will learn beyond the classroom and gain intercultural, international and professional experience.
![Page 34: + Alliant’s Latin@ Achievement Initiative Movilizándonos por Nuestro Futuro San Francisco, CA July 9 &10, 2009.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/56649cc35503460f9498b650/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
+Our Strategy
Competencies are expected of all faculty, students, staff, administrators, and Board members.
Competencies in linguistic capability are stressed throughout the academic program.
Rigorous academic standards for both the English and Spanish modes of instruction are necessary for successful intercultural and international approach to education.
![Page 35: + Alliant’s Latin@ Achievement Initiative Movilizándonos por Nuestro Futuro San Francisco, CA July 9 &10, 2009.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/56649cc35503460f9498b650/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
+Our Strategy
Incorporate all members of the family in the academic and social activities of the institution as a way to enhance the support system of students and engage the Latin@ community at the micro level.
Enhanced student support systems are focused to leverage the educational disparities among Latin@s to level the playing field while obtaining their higher educational goals.
![Page 36: + Alliant’s Latin@ Achievement Initiative Movilizándonos por Nuestro Futuro San Francisco, CA July 9 &10, 2009.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012918/56649cc35503460f9498b650/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
+Our Strategy
Connection to the overall community fulfills the following three important purposes:
first, to build positive, sustainable, culturally affirming relationships;
second, to allow for a smooth transition to the workforce; and
third, to participate in community development, which includes establishing strong and long-lasting partnerships.
