Today, one of every six people in Westchester County is of Hispanic origin.  The growing numbers show us the importance of recognizing our wonderful diversity and doing everything we can to make our Hispanic residents feel welcome.

The goal of our Office for Hispanic Affairs is to help these residents integrate into the larger community. Recognizing that language and cultural barriers often prevent individuals from getting what they need, the Office aims to develop, promote and increase service and assistance programs. 

The Office serves as a clearinghouse for helpful information and partners with other agencies to respond to community needs. Perhaps most importantly, the office offers a place for people to go with their questions – whatever they may be. And hopefully, just coming to this website will answer a lot of them.
