Book excerpt: Governor Kean tells his audience, who are gathered at this fundraiser to honor and support Hispanic heritage, that only a month earlier, he organized New Jersey's first Council of Hispanic Affairs to promote Hispanic awareness throughout the state. He asserts that at that time almost 10% of New Jersey's population were of Hispanic descent. He mentions Casto Meldenado and Frank Morales as two, then current members of the Council. The funds raised were to be used to conduct a regional survey to learn and better understand the social, economic and family concerns of the Hispanic community from Bergen to Union County. This region then accounted for 60% of New Jersey's entire Hispanic population.
