Hispanic Austin Leadership Alumni’s Mission

The mission of the Hispanic Austin Leadership (HAL) Alumni cohort is to support, promote and continue to develop the Greater Austin Hispanic Chamber of Commerce's Hispanic Austin Leadership program while creating a connection for HAL Alumni to foster relationships and continue to grow as leaders, stay engaged in the community and accept leadership roles.

 

Calling all HALA! The GAHCC is revamping the HALA Directory to increase fundraising efforts and to enhance the HALA Experience. Please complete this HALA Outreach Survey today and send it to your fellow cohort members!
