“[T]his month, we honor Hispanic Americans for their countless contributions to our Nation,” reads Apopka’s 2026 National Hispanic Heritage Month proclamation. “Through their dedication to family, community, and our country, they help to build a better future for all Americans.”

“AdventHealth is blessed to be part of the Apopka community, and we believe our responsibility goes beyond caring for people when they are sick,” said AdventHealth Apopka CEO Brad Hillmon in a statement to The Apopka Chief. “It also means showing up, building relationships and supporting the people and traditions that make Apopka stronger. This celebration is a meaningful opportunity to honor the rich culture and contributions of our Hispanic neighbors, bring families together and strengthen the sense of connection that helps a community thrive. We are grateful to be part of that work and to help make Apopka an even healthier, more connected place to call home.”
