As National Hispanic Heritage Month ends, I would like to take this opportunity to recognize that Mano a Mano would not exist if there was not a vast and wholly diverse Hispanic/Latino/Latinx population in the United States spread throughout all areas of our nation both urban and rural as well as our constituents in Puerto Rico. We serve and represent a minority of a minority and we want to take this time to acknowledge that our work does not exist in a vacuum that’s separated from the intersectionality of the various communities we are striving to represent: Deaf and Hard of Hearing; Hispanic/Latino/Latinx; Spanish Speakers; Sign Language Interpreters; and countless others. I also want to take the time to encourage our members to become involved with Mano by running for a seat on our board in the upcoming election.

A todos los miembros de Mano a Mano,
Como es el fin del mes nacional de la herencia hispana, quisiera yo aprovechar la oportunidad de reconocer que Mano a Mano no existiera sin la extensa y diversa población de herencia latina/latinx/hispana en EEUU y Puerto Rico. Sabemos que el alcance hispano llega a todos las esquinas de nuestro país, que sea rural o urbana. Sabemos que representamos y servimos a una minoría de una minoría y entendemos que no obramos en un vacío apartado de la interseccionalidad y diversidad de nuestras identidades: Sordo/hipoacúsico; hispano/latinx/latino; hispanohablante; intérpretes; entre varias otras. Quisiera animar a nuestros miembros a involucrarse con Mano por presentarse en la próxima elección para ser un representante en nuestra junta.
