Latinx, Chicanx, Hispanic Heritage Month

Each year, from September 15 to October 15, we celebrate National Hispanic Heritage Month by honoring the rich histories, vibrant cultures, and significant contributions of Americans with ancestry from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Central and South America.

 

It is a month of immense pride for Latin America as several nations commemorate their hard-fought independence. This month marks the independence anniversaries of:


September 15: Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica

September 16: Mexico

September 18: Chile

September 21: Belize


Each of these countries shares a unique story of struggle and triumph, but what unites the communities together is the enduring spirit and legacy of freedom. This is a time to reflect on the values of independence, celebrate the rich cultural heritage, and honor the sacrifices made by those who fought for the liberty cherished today.
