Stanford Latino Alumni Association

We’re excited to launch Somos Familia, a community storytelling project for the 2026 Stanford Latino Alumni Summit 💛.

We invite alumni to share photos and stories that reflect what familia and comunidad mean to you — whether that’s your family, chosen family, friendships, mentors, or the Stanford community that shaped your journey. Through this project, we hope to celebrate the people, memories, and intergenerational connections that continue to shape our Stanford Latino community across decades.

✨ Selected submissions may be featured on the SLAA Instagram
✨ All submissions will be included in a visual showcase during the Summit this September

Stanford familia — it's time. 🎉

Registration is officially OPEN for the 2026 Stanford Latino Alumni Summit, September 4–6 in Long Beach, California!

This is our first Summit off campus, and we're bringing our comunidad together in the heart of Southern California for three days to reconnect, celebrate our culture, and dig into the conversations that matter most right now.

Our theme: “Rooted in Comunidad We Thrive.”

We started planning this summit with a simple truth: none of us got here alone. This September let's honor that - and decide together what we build next.

Limited early-bird tickets are available now. Register here → https://stanford.io/41XJJkD

And please share this with alumni you want to see in that room. Tag them below!

More programming details are coming soon. Follow us here and on Instagram for updates.
