Welcome to acción hispana

Our duty

Connecting News, Culture & Community

From breaking news to health campaigns, Acción Hispana is the voice of North Carolina’s Spanish-speaking population. Each week, we deliver over 20,000 print newspapers, reach nearly 200,000 Facebook followers, and produce digital content that helps Hispanic families stay informed, safe, and empowered.
Through Qué Pasa Media and outreach projects like Proyecto Mariposa, we ensure Spanish-speaking residents have access to the information they need — when and where they need it.

Whether it’s understanding Medicaid expansion, participating in civic life, or launching a small business, our work bridges the gap between institutions and the Hispanic community”.

Mision & Vision

Mision

To help Hispanic individuals across North Carolina lead better lives by providing trusted news, culturally relevant information, and accessible resources that empower families, strengthen communities, and foster long-term opportunities.

Vision

To ensure that Hispanic individuals in North Carolina are informed, empowered, and equipped to make decisions and take actions that improve their lives — through access to relevant, accurate, and culturally appropriate information across our print and digital platforms.

What moves us

Our Values

The Need

North Carolina is home to more than one million Hispanic residents — a population growing nearly 10% faster than the national average. This diverse community includes people of many nationalities, education levels, literacy in both English and Spanish, occupations, and immigration statuses.
For many, Spanish is their primary or only language. To fully participate in civic life, access services, and make informed decisions, they need accurate, unbiased, and culturally relevant information they can trust.

Strategy

Acción Hispana fulfills its mission through Qué Pasa, our free, Spanish-language news platform. We publish a weekly print newspaper and daily digital content on our website and social media channels — with no subscription required.
Our content helps readers understand and navigate complex topics such as healthcare, immigration, legislation, labor rights, finances, and more, empowering them to take informed action in their daily lives.

The impact we make

Our Featured Work

Proyecto Mariposa

What we did: Created a Spanish-language information HUB for Hispanic residents of Winston-Salem, NC, providing timely updates, resources, alerts, and multimedia content. Funded by ARPA, the initiative was launched in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and expanded to include health, safety, and community resources.

Impact: More than 600,000 people reached through print, radio, video, and social media. The HUB continues to serve as a vital digital space for rural and urban Spanish-speaking audiences to stay informed and connected.
