Ft. Lauderdale, Florida – September 2, 2005 – The National Association of Hispanic Publications, Inc., NAHP, an organization representing Hispanic publications in the United States, and LatPro.com have entered into an exclusive agreement resulting in the recent launch of a newly redesigned and upgraded NAHP website, including a state-of-the-art online career center powered by LatPro.

LatPro.com, an employment website for bilingual professionals in the Americas, developed the new online face of NAHP focusing on enhanced interactivity and expanded services for the association’s membership of over 200 publications. Improvements include password-protected premium areas, secure payment processing, a news center, downloadable documents, and the new NAHP career center.

"The NAHP is always looking for innovative ways to provide professional tools for Hispanic publications and to inform the public about the rapidly-expanding Hispanic print media. This partnership is an integral part of that mission, enabling NAHP to enhance our online presence, improve our Web site’s usability, and add features and services for our online readership," said Lupita Colmenero, president of the National Association of Hispanic Publications.

The revitalized site provides resources for NAHP’s member publications and information about upcoming events such as the 2005 Dallas Ad Summit and 2006 NAHP Annual Convention in Las Vegas.
