NOMINATION SELECTION PROCESS

The Arkansas Latino Hall of Fame depends on members of the public to nominate extraordinary Latinos for induction. Nominations are accepted from organizations or individuals throughout the state.    

NOMINATION CRITERIA

The individuals inducted into the Hall of Fame have made a major impact on the lives of others and helped to elevate the status of Latinos in our state, our nation, and, in some case, around the world.  When choosing someone to honor, consider the following questions:

  • Is the nominee a current or former resident of Arkansas?

  • How has the nominee positively elevated the status and positively impacted the Latin community?

  • Has the nominee helped open new frontiers for Latinos and society in general?

  • Is the community and/or state better for the contributions of the nominee?

  • Are people in general better because of the accomplishments of the nominee?

  • Are Latinos in Arkansas, the region, and/or the US better, has Latinos status improved, or have opportunities increased for Latinos because of the life and contributions of the nominee? and/or

  • Is the nation, world or particular discipline, profession, or field better because of the contributions of the nominee?

*The above criteria will be the basis for selection of members to the Arkansas Latino Hall of Fame.
