Your daughter feels humiliated, betrayed, and hurt. First, just listen. "The hard part is to leave judgment at the door and not minimize what has happened," says Christopher Leeth, professor of counseling at the University of Texas at San Antonio. "It's natural to want to say things like 'don't let them get to you' or 'it's not that big a deal.' That's not how [your] daughter feels." Healthcare advocates spread the word about HIV preventative drug<http://www.kens5.com/news/local/healthcare-advocates-spread-the-w... by JEREMY BAKER - KENS 5 | Pub: 03/29 Did you know there was a drug that prevents people from getting HIV? It's called 'Prep’. The FDA approved the medication in 2012 and it has yet to take off here in Texas. Millions of Americans are expected to become uninsured under the new American Healthcare Act and this could mean less access to life-saving medications like Prep.

While some improvements have been made, UTSA continues to exclude key stakeholders in academic leadership, faculty hires and, most recently, its selection of the next president of UTSA.

Guadalupe’s ‘Emma’ showed the power of one woman’s story<http://www.expressnews.com/news/news_columnists/elaine_ayala/art... by ELAINE AYALA - San Antonio Express-News | Pub: 03/27 Many were moved by the story; perhaps no one more than Keli Rosa Cabunoc, the UTSA graduate student who played the young labor activist who led the 1938 pecan shellers strike. It’s regarded as the first major milestone in the Mexican American struggle for justice in U.S. history, though Texas students aren’t taught about her. An estimated 10,000 to 12,000 workers were involved, the great majority of them Mexican and Mexican-American women who walked off the job for several months to protest cuts in starvation wages and unbearable working conditions. César E. Chávez: A Man with a Vision For Improving Farmworkers’ Lives<https://therivardreport.com/cesar-e-chavez-a-man-with-a-vision-f... by JOSIE MÉNDEZ-NEGRETE - The Rivard Report | Pub: 03/27 Originally from Yuma, Ariz., César E. Chávez relocated with his family to Sal Si Puedes, a barrio in East San Jose, Calif. A complex man, he internalized the inequalities of race and class early on, with his family’s loss of their land during the Great Depression. At age 17, he served his country by enlisting in the Navy, and two years later found himself working in the agricultural fields. There were no others jobs available for Mexicans besides la pisca, the harvest. He soon became active in a self-help and civil rights organization, Community Services Organization (CSO), situated a few blocks from where his family lived. ________________________________ Publications Working with English Language Learners in the Mainstream English Language Arts Classroom… DR.
