Hispanic Heritage Month, observed annually from September 15th to October 15th, recognizes and celebrates the significant contributions, cultures, and histories of the Hispanic community.
From impactful contributions in arts, sciences, literature, business, and public service to the preservation and celebration of diverse traditions, Hispanic Heritage Month serves as a time for reflection and appreciation. It highlights the resilience and cultural richness of Hispanic communities from Mexico, Central and South America, and the Caribbean, among others.
The City's Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Committee hosted Anthony Veliz, founder of PODER, Oregon's Latino Leadership Network, in 2024 as a part of the Committee's Speaker Series. Watch the Speaker Series event here.
