The Pittsburgh Metropolitan Area Hispanic Chamber of Commerce is preparing to open its first standalone headquarters in the 1500 block of Beechview Boulevard by the end of this month.

In 1968, Congress authorized President Lyndon B. Johnson to proclaim a week in September as National Hispanic Heritage Week. The observance was expanded in 1988 to a month long celebration (Sept. 15-Oct. 15). During this month, America celebrates the culture and traditions of U.S. residents who trace their roots to Spain, Mexico and the Spanish-speaking nations of Central America, South America and the Caribbean.

Hispanic Employment Program Committee
The Hispanic Employment Program Committee, of the Pittsburgh Federal Executive Board, proposes to provide, existing and prospective Hispanic business owners, information about programs offered by the Small Business Administration (SBA), the Service Corps of Retired Executives (SCORE) and other Federal agencies that acquire goods and services through contracts with commercial businesses. The HEPC also proposes to establish a self sustained Hispanic Contractor Association that will provide members with networking opportunities, internships and apprenticeships from established Hispanic businesses and a unified voice in seeking opportunities from Federal, state and local governments as well as corporations.
