Happy National Hispanic Heritage Month!
NEPHTC is celebrating National Hispanic Heritage Month! We are honoring and paying tribute to the Hispanic people who have impacted and contributed to our nation, our society, and our communities. The theme for National Hispanic Heritage Month 2023 is: “Todos Somos, Somos Uno: We Are All, We Are One.” National Hispanic Heritage Month is celebrated from September 15 to October 15; this 30 day period encompasses the independence days of several Latin American countries, including Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Mexico, and Chile. You can read more about the history and significance of National Hispanic Heritage Month at this link.
