The Association meets every other year (in even-numbered years) in a different location. We maintain a listserve for members for the dissemination of news of interest.
There currently are several hundred active members of the PRSA. The last meeting was held at Cornell University, in Ithaca, New York, and drew over 200 attendees for presentations on topics dealing with Puerto Rico and with Puerto Ricans in other places. The next meeting will be held in San Juan, Puerto Rico; information can be found using the "2008 Meeting" link at left.

As East Harlem Develops, Its Accent Starts to Change
By TIMOTHY WILLIAMS and TANZINA VEGA
Published: January 21, 2007 Inside a wooden shack set in a garden on East 117th Street, a group of Puerto Rican men, many of them in their 70s and 80s, are playing a spirited game of dominoes on a rainy winter afternoon. A painting of a woman wearing a burgundy shawl over a flamenco-style dress hangs on a wall, and in the garden, tomatoes, peppers, corn and culantro, an herb used in Caribbean cooking, grow in the summer. But outside their little retreat, a thick dust, the pounding of hammers and the shouts of construction workers inundate the block, signaling the transformation of East Harlem, also known as Spanish Harlem or El Barrio (the neighborhood). Many see it changing from the Puerto Rican enclave it has been for decades to a more heterogeneous neighborhood with a significant middle-class presence, luxury condominiums and a Home Depot.
