A number of progressive groups are teaming up with the Latino Victory Project to organize a candidate training camp ahead of the 2024 election, according to The Hill.

The two-day Path to Victory program will take place in Arizona, Pennsylvania, Texas and Wisconsin, and will teach potential candidates the fundamentals of how to run a successful political campaign.

According to Nathalie Rayes, president, and CEO of the Latino Victory Project to The Hill, “The Path to Victory program is an exciting opportunity to meet candidates where they are and build a diverse bench of Latino leaders who are eager for change and to represent their communities in elected office”.

While Latino Democrats have increased their presence in  federal office in recent election cycles, Latino representation  in general is far from reaching parity with national demographics. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, nearly 19 percent of the nation's population identifies as Latino or Hispanic.

“The project also includes Annie’s List Training& Engagement Fund, a Texas-based abortion-rights group focused on helping women run for office; the Pipeline Fund, a network of organizations and individuals who seek to support progressives running for office; and Run For Something, a progressive group co-founded by Hillary Clinton 2016 alum Amanda Litman that’s focused on recruiting progressive candidates up- and down-ballot”, according to the same publication.

“At Run for Something, we know that electing young, diverse progressives who are members of the communities they serve helps build a stronger, more representative democracy”, said Litman.

The training will include a cybersecurity component implemented by Google and Defending Digital Campaigns, a nonpartisan nonprofit organization focused on digital security in political campaigns.
