This event empowers young Latinas ages from 7 to 18, encouraging them to feel good about themselves and be proud to be Latinas.

It is an opportunity for young girls to celebrate who they are, with other girls just like them, and learn about ¡Soy Unica! ¡Soy Latina! (SUSL) information and resources.

The Reconocimiento Awards acknowledge the accomplishments and contribution to the community of Latinas in the following categories:

• Professional Achievement
• Inspirational Leadership
