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.
"The best
thing about
coming here
is having a
mentor, someone
to talk to.
I also enjoy
participating
in service-learning
projects. Adelante
is helping me
reach my goals,
and keeping
me out of trouble.
I want to thank
the staff for
taking time
to get to know
us and for spending
time with us."
