National Hispanic Heritage Month, the anniversary of independence for five Latin American countries, begins on September 15 and is celebrated through October 15. During the month, the County recognizes the contributions of Hispanic and Latino Americans to the United States and celebrates their heritage and culture. Did you know that nearly 20% of our employees are of Hispanic/Latinx origin?
Stop by the east or west Governmental Centers lobbies and check out the National Hispanic Heritage Month displays. You'll learn more about the history and events taking place in the County including the many cultural events at the libraries.
