La Cosecha 2016 will bring together educators, parents, researchers and practitioners supporting dual language enrichment programs from across the U.S.  La Cosecha offers you the unique opportunity to share best practices and resources, current theory and practice, build networks, and fuel our community's efforts to build a better future for our children as we “harvest” the best of our multilingual and multicultural communities.

La Cosecha began in 1996 with 80 teacher volunteers who recognized a need to network and share identified best practices within the dual language community.  La Cosecha 2016 will bring together over 2,500 participants from throughout the U.S and across the world, representing two-way immersion, one-way developmental bilingual, and one-way heritage language immersion programs. Early registration rates available until July 15, 2015 (www.lacosecha.dlenm.org<http://www.lacosecha.dlenm.org>).
