"Hispanic Heritage Month is celebrated each year from September 15 to October 15. It began as a week-long celebration in 1968 under President Johnson and was expanded to a month by President Reagan 20 years later in 1988. The month-long celebration provides more time to properly recognize the significant contributions Hispanic/Latino Americans have made in the United States."
We recognize Hispanic Heritage Month today to honor and celebrate the contributions, culture, and lives of Hispanic and Latino people all over the world!
