The Latino Liaison also represents the governor on the Virginia Latino Advisory Board, created in 2003. On 19 January 2006 Governor Tim Kaine named Sindy Benavides as Deputy Director of Constituent Services and Latino Liaison. As the Liaison, she provided outreach to Latinos statewide and educated them on available state services. Benavides later served as Director of Appointments for the Secretary of the Commonwealth. In 2009, Benavides joined the Democratic National Committee as the Director of the Community Outreach and Voting Department. On 13 April 2009 Governor Kaine appointed Luisa Soaterna as Latino Liaison.
