Unión=Fuerza Latinx Institute invites you to an El Pueblo Unido Mixer—a night to kick back, connect, and celebrate our comunidad—right alongside USCHA 2026.

When: Friday, September 18th, 2026 | 6:00 PM – 9:00 PM PT
Where: El Indio Botanas Y Cervezas, 309 W 3rd St, Santa Ana, CA 92701

Whether you're rolling into town for USCHA or you're part of the local Orange County familia, this one's for you. We know the work we do is heavy, and the fights are real—so before we dive into all the sessions and strategy, let’s take a night to recharge with good people, good food, and good vibes.

Come as you are, bring your whole self, and get ready to meet old friends, make new ones, and remember why we do this in the first place.

What’s happening throughout the night:

6:00 PM – We're on! Grab a drink, grab a bite, and settle in. Music will be spinning from the jump to set the mood.
Mid-evening fun: Stick around for a special sneak peek of El Chacal De Mi Corazon—we’ll watch an episode together, chat about it, and tell you where to find more.
Drag & Beats: Our fabulous Mona Grey will serve looks and attitude in two show-stopping sets, with DJ French keeping the energy flowing on the decks all night long.

Expect a night that flows with the crowd!

This space is open to everyone: USCHA attendees, locals, and anyone who believes in the power of our gente. See you there!
