The goal of the Hispanic Agenda is to enhance the quality of life for Colorado Hispanics and all other Coloradans. Responsibility for the program rests with the Hispanic community and leadership. The Hispanic Agenda Steering Committee began work in January 1986 to develop the structure and process for the Agenda. Program components, identified through a consensus of representatives of the Hispanic community, include the following: (1) elementary secondary education; (2) higher education; (3) labor and employment; (4) economic development; (5) housing and neighborhood; (6) health and human services; (7) political participation and leadership; and (8) media. Subcommittees were formed to identify specific problem areas, collect information, and draft position papers containing long and short term goals and objectives. Over 200 participants took part in goal review and revision at the Hispanic Agenda Conference (St. Cajetan's Center, Auraria Higher Education Center, Denver, Colorado, October 18, 1986). The goals are to be achieved within the next five years. Action committees will be formed to implement the goals, using a recommended strategic approach and criteria system. Specific issues, responsibility for implementation and performance objectives are listed for each of the program components. Statistical data are included on ten graphs, one chart, and one map. (FMW)
