The Napa County Hispanic Network (NCHN) was established in 1983 by local Latino leaders of the community with the intent of being an information sharing alliance. The Network is involved in collaborating with public and private agencies on critical issues affecting the Latino community. Our mission includes promoting educational opportunities to local Latino youth by offering scholarships for advanced education. Since 1992, the Network has awarded scholarships to highly deserving students. Scholarship funds are acquired through private donations from local community members and businesses.  The criteria are grade point average, financial need and community involvement.
