NEW YORK, June 2, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- The Hispanic Public Relations Association (HPRA) today announced the call-for-entries for the highest accolade in Hispanic communications – the 2021 HPRA National ¡BRAVO!

This year's HPRA National ¡BRAVO! Awards program will mark the first time Hispanic industry leaders will come together to celebrate the outstanding campaigns that have impacted our communities. Recognizing the extraordinary way in which many teams had to pivot their communications strategies to address the global crises taking place, this year's theme will be "Powered by Unity & Purpose," and will feature three additional categories focused on elevating outstanding programs that were geared toward COVID response, social injustice issues, and virtual activations.

"As a leading professional organization advancing the practice of Hispanic public relations and its practitioners, we are thrilled to bring back our esteemed awards program which provides a recognition platform for the incredible Hispanic PR work produced within our industry," said Sonia V. Diaz, HPRA National president and senior vice president at Miami-based Balsera Communications.
