Schneps Media boss wants to
spread word at SOMOS confab
By Nelson A. King
Schneps Media owner Vicki Schneps
says she’ll be further spreading the
word about her diverse media empire
when she attends the 2019 SOMOS
Puerto Rico Conference.
The conference, which started on
Wednesday and runs through Sunday,
is organized by members and allies of
the New York State Assembly Puerto
Rican/Hispanic Task Force.
“I feel very much, as a company,
Scheps Media, we have to spread the
word,” said Schneps in an exclusive
Caribbean Life interview just before her
departure for Puerto Rico.
“A lot of people in leadership come
to this conference,” she added. “I went
there last year. We’re an advocacy paper.
For us, it’s a chance to meet people
who I may not ordinarily get a chance
to meet.
“They do the conference right after
the elections (general elections),”
Schneps continued. “It’s a multi-day
conference and multi-day networking,
and getting also people to know us.
“I think the biggest accomplishment
is to meet new people, to know their
issues and concerns,” she said. “It’s a
learning trip for me; a listening tour.
It’s just to learn, listen and share. Hopefully,
I’ll bring back some knowledge
and information. I’m just proud to represent
Schneps Media and all it represents.”
Schneps Media, which owns Caribbean
Life, is “the proud publisher and
producer” of 33 award-winning newspapers,
28 magazines and specialty publications,
20 websites and more than 50
annual events, according to its website.
SOMOS, Inc., says on its website that
it is a nonpartisan, nonprofit 501(c) 3
organization “that unites the Latino
community, raises awareness, advocates
and elevates social consciousness
on public policy in collaboration
with the New York State Assembly/
Senate Puerto Rican & Hispanic Task
Force; and ensures the upward mobility
of Latino youth through educational
empowerment, mentoring programs
and scholarships.”
It also said that it is “a leading force
in bringing together Latino communities
to make positive and transformative
impacts resulting in an improvement
in the socioeconomic and civic
status of all Latinos across New York
State and beyond.”
This year’s SOMOS Puerto Rico Conference
will focus on the ongoing crisis
that Puerto Rico faces.
“It is our goal to educate the conference
participants on the issues so that
their voices can be heard back home
and that the Diaspora can stand united
in advocating for positive change and
action,” said SOMOS in a statement.
It said participants will engage in
service-related activities and in dialogues
“that will highlight and help to
shape priorities for public policy, civic
participation and community engagement.”
SOMOS said the “thought-provoking
workshops” will focus on “key issues,”
such as energy and resiliency, business
development, health and education.
On its website, Schneps Media said
its mission is “to provide all New Yorkers
with news and information about
the issues that shape their daily lives in
their neighborhoods.”
It said it offers the largest circulation
and readership of any media out-
