ExchangeEveryDay Past Issues

Today Exchange joins with the National Latino Children's Institute (NLCI) in recognizing El Día de Los Niños.  This special day was established in 1998 for Americans to acknowledge the importance of children, their rights, well being, and significance to this country.  NLCI is the national steward organization for this day and has led the effort to establish the day in the United States garnering support of leaders and organizations, state and local officials, and corporations.  NLCI has worked closely with the U.S. Senate to introduce an annual bipartisan resolution recognizing the day.  This year, U.S. Senator Robert Menendez (D-NJ), successfully introduced this resolution remarking:

"Today we commemorate El Día de los Niños and honor our children as the center of our families and the future of this great nation.  I have made it a priority to ensure our children have the resources they need to be healthy and safe, so that they can grow up to become contributing members of our society.  Nothing is as important as ensuring every opportunity is available for them to reach their highest potential.  Their success is our nation's success."

According to NCLI, "From California to New York, special events are planned across the country to celebrate NLCI's El Día de los Niños with hundreds of thousands of children and families participating.  Each celebration is unique to its city, but all will acknowledge the future of the community ─ their children."
