Latino Affairs Commission announces the 2011 Latino Awards
The Ohio Latino Affairs Commission (OCHLA) will present its
annual Governor’s Distinguished Hispanic Awards, a yearly event
to recognize and honor those individuals and organizations who
have demonstrated outstanding achievements in the professional
or community service endeavors, and who serve as role models for
the growing Latino community in Ohio. The awards gala will take
place at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Columbus on October 07,
2011.
The Distinguished Hispanic Ohioan Awards recognize
individuals who have taken the challenge with determination and
creativity, to work tenaciously to ensure that their communities
become a better place not only for Hispanics, but for everyone.
The “Nuestra Familia” Awards are presented to non-Latino
individuals or organizations that have gone the extra mile to
make certain inclusion, participation and engagement of Latinos
is taking place in Ohio.
Since 2010, the commission also presents the Latino Military
Service of Distinction Awards to active duty and
veterans who continue to serve our country and communities
through their exemplary lives, community engagement and
service.
