The Doña Ana Board of County Commissioners has proclaimed September 15 through October 15, 2022, as Hispanic Heritage Month in Doña Ana County!
Hispanic heritage is an integral part of our nation and our county. Hispanic Heritage Month reminds us that our identity is a fabric of diverse cultures, stories and traditions woven together. Throughout the year, but especially during this month, we reaffirm the strength our nation draws from its diversity and acknowledge Latinx leaders who have stayed in the struggle for equal justice to ensure that everyone's talent is recognized and all have the opportunity to flourish!
