AmorSeguro Talks Registration
Hi! 

Thank you so much for your interest in attending Esperanza United's collaboration with the Civic Engagement Center (Action Fund Recipient) to provide culturally series of sensitive talks regarding safe sex conversations specifically aimed at the local Latin@ college community here in MN. We will be having unique presenters from CLUES,  and other Latin@ based non-profit organizations to give these talks at Macalester and snacks/food will be provided. Each event is 2 hours long and we will also have some free swag at each event and a pamphlet of resources to be distributed at the final talk. Please indicate below which talks you would be interested in attending based on your availability although we encourage everyone to attend all three as they build off one another.

We can also provide transportation if needed so please indicate that here as well.

If you have any questions/concerns please contact ceintern@esperanzaunited.org or Community Engagement Manager Nallely Castro at nmontoya@esperanzaunited.org.
