The San Diego County Latino Association Employee Resource Group hosted a lively Hispanic Heritage Month celebration at the County Operations Center on Tuesday with music, a cultural dance performance, sweet treats and resource booths.

Hispanic Heritage Month is an opportunity to recognize the many contributions made by Americans of Indigenous, Spanish and African descent to history, education, science, music, literature, art, and civic and government service.

“It's a time to honor our ancestors, our people, and community for their heart for life and work, said SDCLA President Oscar Talaro. “It's a time to gather as Latinos and celebrate our heritage and relationships.”
