This Latino Heritage Month, we are uplifting the cultural strengths of Latine parents and families. These strengths protect children’s health and help them thrive as they grow. 🛡️This week is about multiculturalism!
Ways Latine Families Protect their Children’s Health
Latino Heritage Month 2026 - Multiculturalism - Strength in Culture - Strong cultural connection is a positive health factor for children! It is linked to better sleep, higher grades, stronger leadership skills, and expanded career opportunities. (A young girl in tradition dress looks proudly at camera)

Celebrate the freedom to read with your child by reading children's books that have faced ban attempts during 2026's #BannedBooksWeek! 📖 Efforts to ban books are rising at both libraries & schools. FIS believes every child deserves to feel supported & have books that reflect diverse families.
