Therapeutic Recreation

Celebrated from September 15 through October 15, Hispanic Heritage Month is a time to honor the rich histories, cultures, and contributions of Hispanic and Latinx communities. This month, we are proud to spotlight just a few of the many leaders, advocates, and creators whose lived experiences demonstrate the power of intersectionality, where Hispanic heritage and disability intersect to shape identity, amplify voices, and inspire meaningful impact. To learn more about the five featured individuals and their stories, select this link 2026 Hispanic Heritage Bios.
