History Thirty-five million Hispanics, as a group, have had influence at the local level, due mainly to their strong community and family focus. As a result, that influence was represented by splintered local organizations, labor unions, social groups, ethnic and media organizations. HIPP is helping to connect-the-dots with other Hispanic organizations.
