AARP California conmemorará el Mes de la Herencia Hispana, del 15 de septiembre al 15 de octubre, con una serie de eventos en el área de Los Ángeles, hogar de la población latina más grande del país. El mes rinde homenaje a las contribuciones de generaciones de hispanoamericanos. El domingo, 16 de septiembre, AARP California celebrará el Día de la Independencia de México al patrocinar Family Days; días familiares con música de mariachis, talleres de arte y otros tipos de entretenimiento en LA Plaza de Cultura y Artes en el centro de Los Ángeles.
