In a nation rich with diverse cultures and ethnic identities, using just one approach to public relations can be limiting. The Sierra Nevada Chapter of the Public Relations Society of America (PRSA) is hosting an in-depth, professional development seminar on maximizing Hispanic initiatives on Wednesday, May 28 at Harrah's Hotel and Casino Convention Center in Reno.

About Sierra Nevada PRSA
The Sierra Nevada Chapter of PRSA was established in 1984 by a dozen public relations practitioners in northern Nevada. It was the second PRSA chapter in the state, complementing an older chapter based in Las Vegas and aimed at providing public relations practitioners in northern Nevada and the Lake Tahoe area with a closer professional connection to each other and to national public relations activities. The Chapter has been recognized as a leader in PRSA from its beginning. Formal recognition of that leadership was accorded in 1995 with the national "Best of Chapter Excellence" award. The Chapter is active in professional development for its members and community-service service programs for organizations without formal public relations departments. It maintains a close working relationship with the Theodore E. Conover Chapter of the Public Relations Student Society of America (PRSSA) at the University of Nevada, helping the student organization toward a number of regional and national awards.
