The National Latino Evangelical Coalition is an official member of the National Association of Evangelicals.

The National Latino Evangelical Coalition (NaLEC) seeks to respond to a real need for Latino and Latina Evangelical voices committed to the common good and justice in the public sphere. A national coalition with the objective of educating from a common good Latino-Evangelical perspective in the public sphere may increase the probability of the enactment for just legislations. We seek to do this by promoting and amplifying the voices of this growing constituency. The aim is to both provide alternative voices to the existing partisan voices and  to create national awareness about the growing number of Latino Evangelicals who are not captive to partisan politics. The NaLEC initiatives can provide a platform for this growing and often unheard demographicThe main objectives include: 

• Building a national coalition and movement of Hispanic Evangelicals that will educate their constituencies around public policy issues that contribute to the common good.
• Providing established and promising Hispanic Evangelical leaders an access-ramp to a public policy education.
• Increasing the number of voices that educate for solutions to some of the most intractable national challenges facing Hispanic communities.
• Provide an alternative perspective to a monolithic understanding of Hispanic/Latino Evangelicals.
• Fostering  a global partnership with  well-respected Common Good organizations  in ways that our consistent with the NaLEC’s  strategic plan of education  to the church
