Reaching Latino
Households Since 1990

Latino Impact Media is the only nonprofit organization in the Washington region that produces a weekly television program that reaches thousands of Latino households through the community’s leading Spanish-language station, Telemundo 44.

Since 1990, the public service television series, Línea Directa, has been partnering with local government agencies and nonprofit organizations to provide Latino families with information on their rights, and on important public health, education, immigration, and other critical social services. In addition to Línea Directa, Latino Impact Media offers dual language services that include in-culture translations and the development of digital public awareness campaigns.

In the News

That show, on a May day in 1991, remains one of the most-watched ever in the 25-year history of Línea Directa, which began as a series of unpolished public service announcements and has become the go-to news show for the region’s growing and upwardly mobile Latino community.
