There are various efforts an honors program can do to increase the Latino participation, especially in colleges and universities with large or growing Hispanic populations. These include outreach to Latino-rich programs, increasing the number of Latino faculty in Honors, targeted communication with counselors, and additional outreach to nearby communities and high schools.
