MIAMI, FL - May 27, 2015 – (HISPANICIZE WIRE) - Vme TV, the only national Spanish-language television network in the United States affiliated with public television stations, has partnered with Casa Latina Home Expo, a bilingual home expo for Hispanics in Miami, Florida, that will take place on Saturday, May 30, 2015 and Sunday, May 31, 2015 at the Miami Airport Convention Center.

The event, which encourages attendees to better all aspects of their day-to-day routine and lifestyle with its message "Improve Your Home, Improve Your Life," will host a variety of informative workshops and activities focused on DIY for the home, health for the family, financial literacy, and kid-friendly activities to provide attendees with the proper resources for home-life improvement.

“The home is the core of the Hispanic family and as a national broadcast channel that focuses on providing content to inspire and promote upward mobility in the Hispanic American community, Vme TV is pleased to partner with Casa Latina Home Expo. This event shares the network’s values and vision of providing Hispanic Americans with new ways to meet their home-life needs and help them overcome daily challenges,” said Vme TV’s vice-president of marketing, Ralph Parkman.

Widely known for its high quality, entertaining and educational content, Vme TV has become an ideal resource for Latina moms who seek alternative Spanish-language programming that is enriching for the whole family. A recent study from Pew Hispanic Trends indicates that 95 percent of Hispanic-American parents feel it is extremely important for their children to be bilingual. As a result, Vme TV has become a go-to source for parents who are looking for culturally relevant and engaging preschool programming that strengthens their child's bilingual skill set.

“Casa Latina Home Expo is proud to count on the support of Vme TV, the only Spanish-language channel that provides educational and entertaining content for Hispanic families across the country,” said Nora Diaz Bretherton, co-founder of Casa Latina Home Expo. “We celebrate the network’s all-encompassing efforts to lead our community in a direction of growth and are excited to have Vme TV participate at the expo again this year.”
