WHY THE REBRAND

From latinicida to dos rosas

Our organization prides itself on transparency, so despite the success of Latinicida, we acknowledge that our passion and commitment to our community caused us to overextend ourselves.

To enhance our effectiveness, we have changed our name and narrowed our mission to better serve you as a platform for guidance, education, and mentorship.

From our roots as a Latina coalition reshaping perceptions of Latina potential, we are confident that Dos Rosas will serve as a more valuable resource for you.

LTN served us well, but we are excited for this new journey ahead of us.
