Hampton Roads Hispanic Community Network development, or Phase 1 of our program, is a 'work in progress'. For example, the current site version only has about 15 percent of the pages and links to the over 50-community organizations that affect our daily lives. Improvements to what you see today will continue throughout this year. We would hope that many of these would come as a result of constructive input from our members. After this initial phase is completed, we expect periodic site improvements to continue to upgrade existing features as well as to add new ones. Phase 2, site operation, starts at Hampton Roads Hispanic Community Network roll out.

Why Can Only Registered Members Participate In Forums Or Polling? -

Our aim is to provide a communication vehicle that maximizes the thoughtful and civil exchange of ideas and information to and among community residents. We believe that registration and the consistent use of ones actual name on all posts will encourage and maximize meeting this objective, and will ensure one vote per member in our informal surveys. However being a public web site, civility and thoughtfulness of posts are ultimately up to the good will and consideration of our individual member users.
