About the HACR Young Hispanic Corporate Achievers™

Now in its seventh year, the HACR Young Hispanic

Corporate AchieversTM (HACR YHCA) Program was

created to recognize young executives in Corporate

America who have shown leadership qualities at

their respective companies along with a proven

commitment to the Hispanic community.

The annual program recognizes young Hispanics

at Fortune 500 and/or HACR corporate member

companies. Once selected, HACR YHCAers

participate in an intensive three-day leadership

development, education, and training conference.

Being selected as an HACR YHCAer means that these

executives have been recognized by their companies

and by national Hispanic community leaders who

comprise HACR’s Board of Directors.

HACR YHCAers are role models for other young

Fortune 500 executives. Individually and collectively,

they are leading the way in establishing a new

standard of excellence in Corporate America.

For more than 25 years, HACR has recognized the

successes of companies that are committed to the

inclusion of Hispanics in the areas of Employment,

Procurement, Philanthropy, and Governance.

HACR understands that a company’s success will be

increasingly assisted by their own in-house Hispanic

talent. The HACR YHCA program is instrumental

in not only helping companies identify their high

potential leaders but equally as important in

recognizing those leaders at the national level.

As the Hispanic community continues to grow in

population, political clout, and economic buying

power, Corporate America is realizing that companies

who have cultural competence and utilize in-house

Hispanic decision-makers to develop products are

having greater success than companies who lack

these skills and understanding—it is the power of

Hispanic inclusion.

• Between the ages of 25-40 at time award is received

• Of Hispanic origin

• Employed at a Fortune 500 and/or HACR corporate

member company

• Have shown leadership qualities and capabilities

• Have demonstrated a proven commitment to the

Hispanic community
