Hillary Clinton's campaign announced that it will launch a major push to organize Latino voters in the month of October.

In an effort to reach out to the Latino community, the 2016 presidential candidate will hold several Latino-centered campaign events during Hispanic Heritage Month and appear on Telemundo, a Spanish-language television network, for a sit-down interview on Friday, reports the Tampa Bay Times.

The former secretary of state also launched "Latinos for Hillary," before she heads into the first Democratic primary debate on Oct. 13 in Las Vegas. An aide confirmed that the campaign is setting up watch parties in states like Florida with large Latino populations.

In the days following the debate, Clinton will hold campaign events focused on Latino voters in states with early primary contests like Nevada and Texas.

In addition, Clinton's "Latinos for Hillary" campaign will court Latino lawmakers and elected officials. Plus, she is scheduled to address the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute's annual meeting in Washington, D.C. next week.

"She's shown a deep commitment to the issues that Hispanics care about over a long period of time. This isn't somebody who showed up, decided to run for president and then a lightbulb came on and she decided to reach out to the Hispanic community," said Democratic Rep. Joaquin Castro, who will campaign for Clinton in Nevada in October, reports The Associated Press.

According to a July poll by Univision, an overwhelming amount of Latino voters -- 73 percent -- said that they would vote for Clinton in the Democratic primary. However, 68 percent admitted that they had not heard of or formed an opinion of Democratic presidential contender Bernie Sanders. As a result, this could mean that Sander's still has a good chance of winning over Latinos, in spite of Clinton's impressive numbers. In the meantime, Sanders has already caught up to Clinton in the polls in both Iowa and New Hampshire.
