feliz mes de la herencia hispana

Together, we celebrate the 45th Anniversary of Latino/Latina Hispanic Heritage Month, September 15 – October 15, 2022, a fiesta for all Americans to express appreciation for Latino/Latina contributions and culture.

The beauty of the Hispanic culture in the United States is that Latinos and Latinas come from many backgrounds, Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Dominican, Central and South American, a diverse people group whose common heritage emphasizes family, friends and faith.

So, as we do things to celebrate the joys of our Hispanic cultures during these 30 days, let us think of ways to say healthy and strong.  Be engaged with things that maintain physical, mental, spiritual, and sexual health.

Test for HIV and if (-) engage with your health educator about PrEP or other ways to stay HIV-.

If your test results are (+) call a case manager at 201-489-2900 to be linked to care that will help you live a long, healthy life.

Then all of us will celebrate a Latinx Celebration!   This year we are unable to celebrate on Oct. 15th, but we will not let a year go by without some sort of celebration.  KEEP a lookout for a date To Be Announced.
