Hispanic Heritage Month is the period when people recognize the contributions of Hispanic Americans to the United States and to celebrate Hispanic heritage and culture. The observation started in 1968 as Hispanic Heritage Week was approved by President Lyndon Johnson and was expanded by President Ronald Reagan in 1988 to cover a 30-day period starting on September 15 and ending on October 15. It was enacted into law on August 17, 1988 on the approval of Public Law 100-402.
"Someone
from Adelante
came to my house
to help teach
my daughter.
She is learning
her colors and
letters. I want
her to learn
English and
be ready for
school. There
was nothing
like this where
I lived before."
- Maria Zarate
