National Hispanic Council on Aging (NHCOA) Announces New Offices.

August 10, 2006

Dear NHCOA Familia of Friends, Partners, and Supporters:

So many people who joined us in Miami for our National Conference this year remarked on what an energizing experience it all was – allowing us to return home and to our communities with a new sense of purpose and dedication (and in possession of a number of practical new strategies, techniques, funding source tips, and contacts). My colleagues and I wish to thank you again, from the bottoms of our hearts, for supporting NHCOA in its Conference and other initiatives this year. Your continuing support has helped us fulfill our mission on behalf of the Hispanic older adults.

We also want to take this opportunity to tell you about some significant organizational news: This past week we here in Washington have had the opportunity to take a big step that’s been similarly stimulating, and that will also yield great practical results. We’ve moved from our old offices on Connecticut Avenue, NW, to a historic office building near the White House:

The Walker Building
734 15th Street, NW Suite 1050
Washington, DC 20005

You can reach us by telephone at (202) 347- 9733, and by fax at (202) 347-9735

Just as importantly, moving to our new address has been the occasion for us to reflect on our mission and our basic priorities. We are committing ourselves to a new era for NHCOA of optimism, creativity, openness, and accountability, with a heightened focus on productive collaborations and adherence to the highest standards of organizational and individual achievement.

Come visit us in our new space the next time you’re in Washington! And please accept our gratitude, once again, for helping us support, protect, empower, and honor the U.S.’s Hispanic older adults and their families.

Sincerely,

Yanira Cruz
President & CEO
