NATIONAL HISPANIC HERITAGE MONTH

The theme for 2023 is “Latinos: Driving Prosperity, Power, and Progress in America,”
highlighting the contributions of Hispanics to the economic, political, and social growth of the United States.

Hispanics in America are making significant progress and are driving the country's prosperity forward. The Hispanic community is thriving and is quickly becoming a powerful force in the United States. The data is clear: Hispanics play a crucial role in America's economic success. Hispanic businesses are growing at an unprecedented rate, and the Hispanic workforce is expanding rapidly. From small startups to Fortune 500 companies, Hispanic-owned businesses are making a significant contribution to the US economic prosperity and are continuously driving innovation and economic growth. These three themes - prosperity, power, and progress - are all interconnected. The U.S. Hispanic economic success is leading to more power and influence, which, in turn, is driving further progress for our community. It's a cycle propelling us forward as a whole. It's an exciting time to be a Hispanic in America and an important moment to mobilize and equip Corporate America to engage genuinely with Hispanics as employees, suppliers, consumers, and the community.
