At http://www.womensenews.org/article.cfm?aid=1427 there is an article that may be of interest to some of you. Here is an excerpt:

"Many Hispanic women cannot find appropriate mentors in the workplace. They often feel like outsiders and face a lack of understanding of their cultural background among managers. These obstacles make it difficult for Latinas to
achieve success, according to a new report released from Catalyst, a New York City-based organization that studies women and business trends."
