Latino leaders across Chicago joined LatinoVoicesWTTW to discuss Mayor Brandon Johnson's administration’s new 223-page transition report and how his administration plans to address concerns in the Latino community.
Sylvia Puente, co-chair of the Illinois Latino Agenda and president and CEO of the Latino Policy Forum, said the ILA worked with the new mayor to ensure proportionate Latino representation in the transition committee.
“I think a long-standing issue that we’ve been dealing with is the gentrification of many of our communities like Pilsen, Little Village, Humboldt Park,” Muñoz said. “And that’s a long-standing issue that we need to continue to address. But the most immediate concern right now is the migrant issue.
One of the short-term recommendations the health and human services subcommittee made is declaring a health care crisis. “Some of the key things that we talked about within this report were: How do we look at how we are represented within the school district?” Osoria said. “So if you look at the report, you’ll see that there are opportunities to look at the pipeline for educators, whether that is looking at actual students from CPS or parents and other community leaders and really think about a grow-your-own focus to be able to have educators that reflect our community.
