Introduction
 
 The Sanitation Association De Latinos (S.A.L.) is a fraternal organization designed to celebrate and promote understanding of Latino culture among all Department employees.  The association is open to all members of the Department of Sanitaiton regardless of civil service status or cultural background.  One of our primary goals is for the membership to represent the various titles and diverse cultural origins of all Department employees.  The Board consist of the following individuals: Jose Garcia (MNBO), Robert Oliveras (MN09), Nancy Colon (OMD), Alice Zayas (CLNING), Edgar Soto (MN08), Roberto Cruz (BKN 05), and Richard Ortega (MN ENF). Our General Membership meetings are held on the FIRST THURSDAY of the month.  In keeping with our agenda of "Bringing it to our members," we try to hold our meetings in centrally located areas around the city and in every borough.  We are always looking for new ways to get to YOU.  Let us know if you know of a good place to meet.
