Hispanic Heritage Month declared by board
The board of commissioners has recognized September 15 through October 15, 2024, as Hispanic Heritage Month.
Hispanic Heritage Month celebrates the achievements of the diverse Hispanic and Latine communities in the Arts, Education, Entertainment, Government, History, Law, Literature, Medicine, the Military, Music, Politics, Science, Sports, and other endeavors. Hispanic and Latine individuals and community groups in Ramsey County, and across the metropolitan region and state of Minnesota, have made profound impacts in society and have contributed to the rich cultural diversity in these communities.
The Ramsey County ¡Voces! Employee Resource Group continues to build strong community relations, honor the culture and heritage of staff, and provide a space for Latines and Hispanics to be their authentic selves.
