Career Opportunities
Chicanos and other Latinos will soon be the largest ethnic group
in California. Demographers estimate that in California 40 percent
of the population will be of Mexican or Latino ancestry by the
year 2030. This segment of our population will have a major
impact on our society, as its presence translates into an increasing
economic and political influence. Crucial social, economic,
and political decisions will be made that affect this group
and the nation at large. The growth of Latino-owned businesses,
Spanish language media networks, and political organizations
are all indicators of the importance of the Spanish-speaking
people in the U.S. economy.
