ATB IS PLEASED TO SPONSOR THE SPANISH AMERICAN LEAGUE AGAINST DISCRIMINATION AT THEIR UPCOMING 40TH ANNIVERSARY HONOREE RECEPTION
2014-07-23
The Spanish American League Against Discrimination was founded in Miami in 1974 by a group of Hispanic and Cuban-American residents of South Florida as a response to the under representation at the time of Hispanics in the school system, local government and the judicial system. In its early years SALAD became recognized as a prominent civic entity, devoted to combating issues based on any type of discrimination, and for advocating in support of initiatives and legislation to promote diversity, inclusion and understanding among all ethnic groups in South Florida. Today, under its new and committed leadership and members, SALAD is increasing its advocacy role at the federal, state and local level and provides direct-service programs to improve the quality of life in the South Florida community.
