Chicanx Latinx University Alumni Network
Mission Statement
Established in 2021, the Cal State LA Chicanx and Latinx University Alumni Network (CLUAN) exists to cultivate, promote, and support an inclusive community of alumni with the collaboration of students, faculty, and staff to engage in activities that advance educational, personal, intellectual, and cultural development. These goals will be achieved through mentoring programs and services, networking opportunities, and financial initiatives that facilitate professional, social, and academic growth among the Chicanx/Latinx community.
Key Facts
