The Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute and Comcast partnered to launch Our Youth, Our Future, Our Legacy, a bilingual public-service-announcement campaign that includes 17 Hispanic members of Congress.
The campaign is part of a larger partnership to educate Hispanic students and families about opportunities available through CHCI’s Public Policy Fellowship, Congressional Internship and Scholarship Awards programs in Washington, D.C.
“This unique PSA campaign encourages Hispanic youth to seek opportunities to prepare them as our future leaders,” said Susan Gonzales, senior director at Comcast. “We are proud to present this campaign to the community.”
The PSAs will air Sept. 15-Oct. 15 in all Comcast markets throughout the country. The Spanish-language versions will be available via streaming video on Comcast Latino, Comcast's Spanish-language portal (comcast.terra.com). The campaign will also air in Time Warner Cable markets in California and Texas Nov. 15-Dec. 15.
