My name is Ilse.
One thing that stood out to me is the fact that many low income families struggle to pay for bills,
it is saddening that many adolescence seek employment rather than a higher education.
It is essential that people have theire voices heard so that they can improve the quuality of life.
Education is the key to success !
Overall, I hope that there are programs that offer students the help they need, so that they can stay in school.

Maria is a parent and she spoke about the challenges she faces trying to pay her monthly rent.
Lupe spoke about the challenges her family faces and how her dad is the only person that works and doesn't have enough money to pay the rent so she wants to work instead of going to school to help pay the rent.
Erica spoke about the challenges she faces going to school and working full time.
Ilse said that she could relate because it is difficult for families that come from low incomes to send there children to college.
We all discussed the importance of going to school and getting an education so that we don't struggle paying our bills. It's important to stay in school!

Today the organization KIWA accompanied Heriberto Zamora to a luxurious Beverly Hills Restaurate (Urasawa) to demand the overtime pay he worked for during 6 years.Heriberto worked for this luxurious place since he was 17, experiencing unfair work conditions such as verbal abuse, no time off, and even being forced to work sick, and to top it all off he was fired when he asked permission to go home because he felt ill and could not work.Fortunately he found KIWA, which has provided him with the knowledge that he has rights as a worker and that it's not a crime to assert your rights, and now he is fighting for justice that is not only for him, but also for those who are living and working under those conditions.
