How To Get Latinos Ready for College

Check out this article on Salud America!'s website about our Juntos Program. Here is a link to the article about the program, including the need for it. The article also expands upon the Juntos approach to college-readiness, and the state of Latinx education.

https://salud-america.org/how-to-get-latinos-ready-for-college/

Latinos have less opportunity than their peers to take challenging curriculum including advanced courses, often indicative of college success.

Meet Myra Paloblanco, 2019 McMinnville High School graduate and Juntos participant.

Myra Paloblanco graduated from McMinnville High School in June of 2019 and plans on starting her journey towards a career in Pediatric Medicine as a biology major at OSU this Fall. The Paloblanco family has participated in both the middle school and high school Juntos workshops and have been participants of program activities since 2016. Myra is the oldest of five siblings and will be the first in her family to go to college. Marcela Martinez, Myra’s mom, has been a consistent advocate for her family and their education. Myra’s hobbies include painting and playing volleyball, and she is looking forward to “experiencing the dorm life and taking part in OSU on-campus traditions.” We are SO excited to welcome Myra and the Paloblanco family to OSU in Corvallis this Fall.

The Juntos program works to unite community partners to provide culturally relevant programming for 8-12th grade students and their parents. Our programming is designed to empower families with knowledge, skills, and resources that promote high school completion and to encourage families to work together to gain access to college. Juntos aims to support students and their parents to make their educational dreams a reality, and show them that college is possible! If you would like to make a donation to the Juntos program, to help us keep offering local program and college visits, please go visit http://bit.ly/supportjuntos

Together, we must continue that work, and honor the that of those who came before us, especially for the 50 year anniversary of the Stonewall Uprising.
