National Hispanic Landscape Alliance set to join NALP

FAIRFAX, Va. – Beginning in April, the National Hispanic Landscape Alliance will join the National Association of Landscape Professionals. 

Since 2011, the National Hispanic Landscape Alliance has empowered more than 500,000 Hispanic-Americans employed in the landscape industry in the United States. The Board of Directors of NHLA decided that joining forces with NALP was the best way to advance the mission of NHLA.

“Supporting Hispanic-Americans professionals is critical to the continued growth of the landscape industry,” said NALP CEO Britt Wood. “We need to bring all the nation’s landscape professionals together to ensure that we are working together to shape the direction of the industry.” 

NALP will welcome the members of NHLA, providing them with significant opportunities for collaboration in policymaking as well as professional and leadership development opportunities. 

“We were delighted that the leadership at NALP embraced our suggestion to join forces so enthusiastically,” said NHLA president Mari Medrano. “We look forward, as we become part of NALP, to expanding our reach, doing more to empower the Hispanic American landscape community, and uniting the entire industry.”
