Hispanic Policy Network

¡Bienvenidos!

HPN is a familia, community, and movement.

The Hispanic Policy Network is a Texas State University faculty and staff organization committed to the advancement of Hispanic/Latinx individuals in post-secondary education.

We promote a safe and inclusive working atmosphere; create opportunities for networking; assist in the recruitment, retention, and promotion of diverse faculty and staff; promote an intersectional Latinidad and Hispanidad; advocate for the educational equity for diverse students; and provide financial assistance through our endowed scholarship.

We look forward to you joining the HPN Familia.

Somos Tejas State - Hispanic/Latinx Student Support Fund

The Somos Tejas State campaign supports the professional development of the current Texas State Latinx student body for preparation to enter the global workforce.

These funds were used to provide direct support to half a dozen students through conference registration fees, flights, and mini-grants.
