U of M Extension Service assists Mexican Consulate visit to Rochester, Minnesota

“The University of Minnesota Extension Service is working with leaders of the Rochester Latino community to distribute financial education resources when the Mexican Consulate visits the U’s Rochester campus on Saturday, April 29.

The mobile consulate will spend its time in Rochester issuing Mexican I.D.’s and visas. The request came from the local chapters of the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC) and the Alliance of Chicanos, Hispanics and Latin Americans (ACHLA). As co-sponsor of the event, Extension’s regional center in Rochester will provide attendees with research-based information from its financial literacy program.

The Mexican I.D. is recognized by some local governments as a valid form of identification for the purposes of public employment, school registration or opening a bank account.”
