WELCOME TO DATOS 2019 "SRP is proud to have been a founding partner and investor in the Arizona Hispanic Chamber of Commerce’s market intelligence efforts. The significant impact on all minority-owned businesses, the fastest growing business segment, will continue to drive our state’s economy. Congratulations to the AZHCC on the 23rd anniversary release of DATOS." –MIKE HUMMEL, General Manager and CEO, Salt River Project.

23ND ANNUAL DATOS This year, the Arizona Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (AZHCC) focuses on Latinos and health care in our annual DATOS: The State of Arizona’s Hispanic Market report through the lens of our newly adopted framework. The 23rd annual edition of DATOS includes its usual comprehensive collection of data under the theme: “Elements of a Healthy Community”. This ongoing approach is inspired by our partnership with Vitalyst Health Foundation, which is committed to “connect, support and inform efforts to improve the health of individuals and communities in Arizona.” The elements are inspired by the work of the World Health Organization and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Everyone deserves an opportunity to live in a safe and healthy environment and a critical measure of a community’s health is health care. However, there are many other factors at play. These “elements” run the gamut from affordable housing to community safety, economic opportunity, educational opportunity, environmental quality, food affordability, community design, parks and recreation, social/cultural cohesion, social justice, transportation and, yes, access to affordable healthcare. Presented together, you can envision how the health of a community is shaped by addressing, or failing to address, one or more of these vital elements Yet, our motivation for publishing DATOS for more than 20 years remains the same. As in years past, our talented team of writers, editors and researchers behind DATOS have documented and interpreted the implications of the major market trends in Arizona’s increasingly diverse and shifting demographics. We do this work because it is important for Arizona to be aware of the contributions that Latinos make to the state and its economy. Thank you again for joining us to mark the 23rd anniversary of DATOS: The State of Arizona’s Hispanic Market. Enjoy the conference!

EDITOR'S LETTER "RESEARCH IS CREATING NEW KNOWLEDGE." —NEIL ARMSTRONG

It is my pleasure to share with you the 23rd annual edition of DATOS: The State of Arizona’s Hispanic Market.

DATOS is the single most comprehensive compilation of secondary research regarding Arizona’s Hispanic consumers. It demonstrates the Arizona Hispanic Chamber of Commerce’s commitment to researching and distributing timely and valuable market intelligence on the economic impact of Arizona’s Latinx community. More than ever, this research is vital, both in Arizona and nationally. It provides a factually-based point from which public policy and private industry leaders are informed and educated. From behind these verifiable facts, the faces of a growing, thriving Latinx population emerges, demonstrating the value we bring to our state’s economy and culture.

DATOS underscores the point that Latinx are a driving economic force in our state and nation. Behind the statistics are the stories of our Hispanic community weaving vibrancy, resiliency and strength into the collective fabric of our local communities and country. This publication and the important narrative it tells would not be possible without the help of the Arizona Hispanic Chamber of Commerce’s incredibly talented and dedicated staff, interns and DATOS Committee. These subject matter experts and professionals make this publication reliable, responsible and relevant. I am grateful and honored to work side-by-side with them. For the past eight years, it has been a privilege to serve as DATOS’ editor. Candidly, the presentation of each edition has felt a little like giving birth to a new life with its own story to tell. And what a story it is – and will continue to be! As I fully transition into my new role as President and CEO of the Arizona Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, I remain a dedicated champion of the seminal research DATOS provides. This publication is certainly bigger than any single person and will continue to be a focal point of our Chamber’s work. My sincere thanks for embracing DATOS each year as a key resource for growing our communities, businesses and state. Together, we are leading the way! Abrazos,

PARTNERSHIP Given how often data ends up challenging conventional wisdom, it’s almost funny how surprising an accumulation of facts and framing can be. This has held true with Hispanics and DATOS and it similarly applies to health. Conventional thinking holds that health is the product of health care, subject to the influence of genes and personal choice. But the data tell a different story. The consensus finding of the World Health Organization (WHO) is that health care represents only about 10-20 percent of overall health. The science of epigenetics is clarifying that genetic profiles actually do not predetermine our individual fates. Meanwhile, public health officials worldwide agree that the choices we make are predicated by the choices we have. In other words, health goes beyond health care. Health is everywhere – shaped by the contexts in which we live, work, learn and play. Many of health’s data experts assert that the strongest predictor of health and well-being is not your genetic code, but rather your zip code. In fact, conditions in neighborhoods separated by just a 10-20 minute drive in Phoenix have the capacity to affect life expectancy by up to 10-14 years. Phoenix is not an anomaly. Cities all over the US share similar profiles.

We are humbled to be partnered with the Arizona Hispanic Chamber of Commerce in order to more thoroughly understand what this approach can mean for the well-being of Hispanics. Part of the DATOS mission is to align perceptions of Arizona Hispanics with a data-based reality. Vitalyst’s Live Well Arizona goal is to realign perceptions with the facts as well – and to capitalize on that new understanding with cross-sector investments of time, talent and treasure that can propel Arizona to a more equitable, healthier future.

These facts are not just attention-getting, they are also perception-shifting and empowering. They tell us that we have new options to improve health and well-being. We can call upon partnership with sectors like food, housing or transportation. We can delve into the health impacts of education and economic opportunity. We can extend ourselves toward impacting the visceral effect that social factors like isolation or toxic stress have on health. We can study how all of these factors are rooted by the cross-cutting issues of equity and resilience. We can use that knowledge to collaborate and integrate efforts among and across sectors. In so doing, we can be more powerful, more effective and more impactful in improving community health and well-being.

When it comes to honoring the Hispanic community’s unique assets and strengths within this new health paradigm, we couldn’t be more grateful to partner with DATOS. Here’s to a future of working together to improve community health and well-being for us all.

The Elements of a Healthy Community wheel was designed and produced by Vitalyst Health Foundation in collaboration with community partners. The elements are inspired by the work of the World Health Organization and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. To learn more, please visit VitalystHealth.org

ONLY TAKE WHAT YOU NEED BY CATALINA PEREZ “Only take what you need,” said the mother of three, carrying a baby in her arms while carefully picking out the clothes that her children will need for the journey ahead of them.

Before KBI could begin working on the new Migrant Outreach Center, they started a campaign that has raised $2.8 million to date. Part of the money was used to purchase the building and begin remodeling it. The rest of the funds will cover the first year of operations and provide an emergency fund. The majority of the money came from throughout the United States, but there were also plenty of donations from Mexico.

ant Outreach Cen In Father Sean’s first stage of Jesuit formation, he served at a Catholic institution in Tijuana. There he met a family from Durango. The husband was working in the US while the mom and children stayed in Tijuana. In fact, the family had been living on the streets for almost three months when Father Sean helped the family find a home. During the transition, Father Sean got to know the mom and became more aware of the reality of the family’s situation, which definitely changed him in a powerful way. Because of that experience, he learned Spanish and decided he wanted to serve the Latino community in some way.

Many of those who have visited the Migrant Outreach Center have been affected in ways they never could have imagined. They witness the separation of families and will forever carry these heartbreaking stories in their hearts. Many visitors notice that migrants are more concerned about seeking asylum, which is what KBI focuses much of its work on. Since May 2018, the group has seen a huge shift in the number of deportees and asylum seekers. Now, 90% are asylum seekers and 10% are deportees. One of the biggest reasons for this shift is because of the violence that migrants experience in their homelands. Many have had their family members threatened or killed. Others simply want to escape such a cruel, unsafe environment to protect their families.

a place of hope, safety, dign d compassion on the border In 2006, Father Sean Carroll saw there was a need to help the Latino community in Arizona. He discovered that it was important to create awareness of the communities to highlight the human reality at the border and provide humanitarian assistance, education, research and advocacy.

The mission for Father Sean and KBI is crystal clear. From a faithbased perspective, God has given the group a mission to be there for migrants and God will give them what they need to move forward. It is critically important for our lawmakers to go down to the border to see exactly what is happening to families. This is a severe humanitarian crisis that we cannot ignore.

At that time, there already was a Migrant Outreach Center that was later integrated into the Kino Border Initiative (KBI). KBI, which currently has 19 team members and more than 200 volunteers, provides two meals a day, phone calls, check cashing, first aid and a shelter for women and children. In 2018, the Migrant Outreach Center served 55,000 meals. It is a daunting task that requires much creativity to serve so many people with such a small staff in such a small space.

The migrants crossing the border to seek asylum clearly show us the strength of the human spirit against incredible odds.

A new Migrant Outreach Center is current being built next to the old center. The new center, which should be ready by the end of the fall season this year, will have dining for 1500 people, access to make phone calls, legal assistance, migrant advocacy, a separate shelter for women and men, and job training. It also will help migrants find places to live and help them find transportation to school, work or home. The goal is to give migrants the resources they need to set up their lives in Nogales.

HELPING PEOPLE IN NEED BY DR. MARIA CHAVIRA

‘…whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me.’ —Matthew 25:31-46 Helping to care for our brothers and sisters in crisis is an experience as profound and life-changing as falling in love. No one can do it for us and no one should do it for us. Instead, we deserve this experience ourselves. In the Gospel of Matthew, our Lord Jesus instructs us to care for the hungry, the thirsty, the sick, the poor and the stranger in our midst. Importantly, he said that when we care for others, we care for him—imagine that! The Roman Catholic Diocese of Phoenix’s mission embodies this Gospel message and it is committed to helping the faithful encounter the living Jesus Christ. The 94 parishes and 23 missions throughout the region are the primary ministry of the Diocese of Phoenix and are centers of community, support for families and catalysts for spiritual growth. When the Diocese of Phoenix was established on Dec. 2, 1969, the Catholic population numbered around 200,000. Today there are more than 1.2 million Catholics–with representatives from the Hispanic, Filipino, Native American, Vietnamese and African communities–living throughout the 44,000 square miles (nearly 300,000 households) that make up the vibrant and diverse Diocese of Phoenix.

Gestures of love, tenderness and care help people know the Lord is with them. Here are just a few of the ways the Diocese of Phoenix addresses homelessness, health care, immigration and education: Catholic Charities, which serves seven Arizona counties with more than 20 programs, has provided aid to more than 21,000 people— refugees, veterans, children in foster care and victims of domestic violence and sex-trafficking–last year. Our Head Start and Early Head Start programs promote school readiness for young children. Families feel strengthened and supported, which has a direct, positive influence on the community.

As the Diocese of Phoenix commemorates its 50th anniversary this December, it is important to give thanks to God for blessing this community and to recognize the people who are moved by his love and motivated to share that love with others, just as Christ instructs us to do. The Diocese of Phoenix supports more than 70 community and charitable organizations in its efforts to assist the elderly, the homeless, those who have lost jobs, women who have been abused and families in crisis. Loving one’s neighbor means acting with compassion.

Saint Vincent de Paul (SVDP) has been serving those in need in our community for many years. There are several chapters or “conferences” located at various parishes throughout the diocese. SVDP assists those in our community by feeding, clothing, housing and healing through the various programs they offer.

CHERISHING LIFE AND HEALTH CARE As Catholics, we place great value on the dignity of human life—for the sick and the vulnerable, the unborn and the elderly. The Catholic Daughters of America (CDA), provides critical support to nine apostolates that promote the health and well-being of young mothers and their babies, helping young mothers adjust to life as parents. Last year’s numbers reflect this work: • 18,245 people served at clinics • 7,779 pregnancy tests provided • 165 Natural Family Planning classes held

CONCLUSION

• 6 statewide clinics offered support for women’s health and pregnancy

Through prayerful reflection, Bishop Thomas J. Olmsted and Bishop Eduardo A. Nevares continue to focus on helping people encounter the living Christ.

Additionally, the Diocese of Phoenix is collaborating with Creighton University’s Phoenix campus and is recognized as the only Catholic medical school campus west of Omaha.

The ministries provided through the Diocese of Phoenix help transform the lives of thousands of people. Together, we put our faith into action, just as Christ says in the Gospel of Matthew: “Amen, I say to you, whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me.”

FORMING FUTURE LEADERS THROUGH CATHOLIC EDUCATION Our Catholic schools offer a high-caliber curriculum to more than 15,000 students, educating the mind, spirit and body of each child in a faith-filled environment. With assistance from the CDA, schools provide tuition assistance for Catholic education and teachers are equipped with needed resources to help prepare students to lead productive, rewarding lives at one of the 29 Catholic elementary schools, six stand-alone preschools and seven Catholic high schools

WORDS MATTER: MINORITY VS. MINORITIZED BY ARISBETH VALENZUELA While the terms minority and minoritized might be synonymous to many individuals, it’s critical to understand the key differences between the two words and the implications they carry. The term minority is defined as “a racial, ethnic, religious or social subdivision of a society that is subordinate to the dominant group in political, financial or social power.” The verbiage of this definition automatically instills the social imbalances perpetuated by those who are considered the majority. Deeming an individual as a subordinate strips those in question from their own autonomy placing them into a fixed category. In contrast, the term minoritized is a verb that recognizes the action of an individual being displaced into the fringes of society. This action forces individuals to assume exclusion from mainstream society through no choice of their own.

minority noun, often attributive mi·​nor·​i·​ty | \ mə-ˈnȯr-ə-tē a racial, ethnic, religious or social subdivision of a society that is subordinate to the dominant group in political, financial or social power.

Using the word minoritized rather than minority allows individuals to assess their privilege. While the two terms may be applicable to an individual, some fail to recognize that one can be a minority, but not be inherently marginalized. Within the Latinx community this is a salient problem; many fail to recognize the privileges that they assume and the manner in which these advantages do not limit their growth and or rank within the social order of society.

None of these situational circumstances negate the fact that if one or any of these circumstances are not applicable to an individual's life that the individual might not be a minority. The circumstances rather highlight various obstacles that enforce the minoritization of individuals within our community.

a step back. In a community where documentation status determines one's social mobility, individuals with granted citizenship must take a step back. In a community where an individual's socio-economic status determines whether one is allowed a home in a “proper” neighborhood rather than being pushed to government-owned or inner city housing, one must take a step back.

Obtaining privilege does not diminish cultural or racial standing, but it is critical to understand the two terms and how privilege predetermines whether an individual is more inclined to be minoritized.

In a community that faces issues with colorism, racial discrimination and xenophobia, those who obtain white passing privileges must take

NEW TERMS: LATINO VS. LATINX BY CATALINA PEREZ

Latino noun La·​ti·​no | \ lə-ˈtē-(ˌ)nō 1 : a native or inhabitant of Latin America 2 : a person of Latin American origin living in the US Latino adjective relating to Latinos

The male and female binary are inherent to Spanish language. There is a masculine and feminine form for almost every word to specifically refer to either men or women. Latin(o) refers to a man of Latin American descent. Latin(a) refers to a woman of Latin American descent. However, in the Spanish language, the gender-neutral way to refer to both men and women is to use the masculine form of a word. Latin(o)s can refer to 20 women and one man. The term nonbinary is used to describe someone whose gender is not exclusively male or female. Many people do not identify with the male–female binary, meaning their gender does not fit into the stereotype of what it means to be a man or a woman. If we look back in time, the concept of nonconforming gender and nonbinary were recorded as far back as 400 B.C. when people in India identified as beyond male or female.

We are seeing this not only in the United States, but also in Mexico. According to Cultura Colectiva news, officials in Mexico are now required to use inclusive language. The new code of ethics states that any government official must get rid of any discriminatory language that stereotypes gender. They want to promote an equal, inclusive work culture where everyone respects the identity and sexual orientation of others.

With the new era of inclusivity, more people in the Latinx community are speaking up on this movement. The “x” represents everyone that does not want to conform to the social construct of male and female. It takes people of Latin American descent out of the male or female boxes. The Latinx movement is geared toward the new generation and is gradually developing. As our society becomes more progressive, so should our language.

We need to make sure that our language is progressing at the same time that these social movements are taking place or else we will find ourselves stuck in the past. As society changes we want to reflect those changes in the way that we speak and write. The term Latinx promotes inclusivity and equality and we hope to see more people use it regularly.

ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY STATE OF HISPANIC WEALTH REPORT

Executive Summary The history of the United States is an immigrant story, a tale of courageous and determined people who came to the Americas in search of prosperity. Today, the future economic viability of this nation rests on an undeniable reality: Latinos in the U.S. are and will be critical players that will determine whether the U.S. remains competitive on the world economic stage.

NEARLY 1 IN 3 PEOPLE

The Latino story is the American story. At 18 percent of the population, Latinos have

accounted for half of the national population growth since 2000, and by the year 2060, nearly one in three people in the U.S. will identify as Latino.1 The future of the U.S. economy will be intrinsic to the economic success of the Latino population, as Baby Boomers continue to age out of the American workforce, and with ten thousand Boomers reaching retirement age each day.2 With Latinos increasingly fueling the U.S. economy, the solvency of federal programs, such as Social Security, will likely rest on the backs of the Latino workforce. In 2014, the Hispanic Wealth Project set a goal to triple median Hispanic household wealth by 2024. While there are numerous economic data points that are encouraging, the wealth gap between Hispanics and non-Hispanics remains alarmingly wide. In 2016 the wealth gap was $150,400, up 12 percent from $132,200 three years prior.3 To

January of 2016 in a city like Houston, Texas, loan free.4 However, it is important to note that while the wealth gap has nominally increased between 2013 and 2016, proportionally it is decreasing. NonHispanic White households held $8.30 for every dollar of Hispanic household wealth in 2016, down from $10.36 for every dollar in 2013. Overall, it cannot be disputed that Hispanics are showing signs of resilience and perseverance as they continue to recover from the devastating loss of wealth experienced during the Great Recession.

The Gap Explained:

MEDIAN HOUSEHOLD WEALTH GAP 2013 AND 2016

Latinos are young. The median age for Hispanics is 29, which is almost a full decade younger than the median age of the general population at 38 and nearly 60 percent of Latinos are age 34 or younger.5 As young Latinos age into their prime wealth building and income generating years,

built through intergenerational wealth.

The gap in asset value is larger than the wealth gap. The mean net housing wealth, or equity, for Latino homeowners is $129,800, compared to $215,800 for non-Hispanic White families. Additionally, between 2010 and 2016, Latino households had inflation-adjusted assets amounting for $27,666 as opposed to $235,515 for nonHispanic households. The disparity in assets is larger than the overall wealth gap ($150,400) indicating the gap is driven more by asset value disparities than by debt. For clarification, the terms “Hispanic” and “Latino” are used interchangeably throughout this document to refer to people of Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Central American, South American, Dominican, and Spanish decent, and decent from other Spanish-speaking countries.

Hispanics own retirement accounts at lower rates than all demographics. Across income brackets, Latinos have historically under-participated in investment vehicles, such as retirement accounts. Of the 29.7 percent of Hispanics who own retirement accounts, the median value in those accounts is $22,600.9 Hispanics are over-represented in jobs that offer few benefits. Of the over 27 million Latinos employed in the United States, 24.3 percent work in service industries, where jobs that give access to employee-sponsored 401k, life insurance plans, and stock options are not offered.10 Latinos are less diversified in their assets, making them more susceptible to losses in the next recession. Latinos have the largest proportion of their assets in their home, at 39 percent, and only 4.2 percent of Latinos own any stocks.11 This lack of diversification leaves Latinos more vulnerable to market sector fluctuations and recessions. 94 percent of Latino-owned businesses do not have any employees. Latino entrepreneurs are outpacing the general population in small business formation. However, only 6 percent of Latino-owned businesses have any employees, and only 3 percent have an annual revenue of over $1 million.12

The Trends: Hispanics are leading homeownership growth in America. For the fourth consecutive year, Hispanics increased their rate of homeownership, reaching a rate of 47.1 percent. In 2018, Latinos added 362,000 homeowners which is the highest number of owner households added for Latinos since 2005.13 Hispanics have achieved marked gains in homeownership rates, despite housing inventory shortages. In 2017, Hispanics saw the third consecutive year of income growth and the highest of any demographic. Between 2016 and 2017, Hispanics increased their real median income by 3.7 percent. Latino families making an annual income over $200,000 increased from 2.1 percent in 2011 to 3.8 percent in 2017, and the percentage of

-HWP Blueprint

lowered their poverty rate for three consecutive years. With a poverty rate of 18.3 percent in 2017, Hispanics reached their lowest level since poverty estimates for Hispanics were first published by the U.S. Census in 1972.15 Latinos have significantly higher labor force participation rates. Hispanics are employed at a rate of 66.1 percent, compared to 62.9 percent of the general population. The Hispanic unemployment rate was reduced by over 7 percentage points between 2009 and 2018, from 12.1 percent to 4.7 percent, respectively.16 Latinos continue to drive small business growth. Between 2014 and 2016, the number of Latino-owned employer firms increased by 13.1 percent, accounting for 23.8 percent of the net growth of all employer firms during that period.17 Participation in retirement accounts for Latinos is increasing. Between 2013 and 2016, Hispanics increased their rate of retirement account ownership from 25.1 percent to 29.7 percent, and the value of their retirement accounts increased by roughly 40.4 percent.18

The Solution: Higher education attainment is positively correlated with Latino household wealth and entrepreneurial success. Hispanics with some college have five times the median household wealth of Hispanics with no college, and Latino business owners have higher rates of education than the general Latino population, with 42 percent having at least a bachelor’s degree compared to 9 percent of all Latinos.19 Networks matter. 77 percent of scaled firms (those firms making more than $1 million in annual revenue) are more likely to participate in professional trade associations or networks, compared to 35 percent of Latino-owned firms

The HWP Blueprint outlined three primary areas of focus and a series of goals: homeownership, small business, and savings and investments. The plan additionally referenced two distinct types of initiatives: NAHREP-recognized initiatives and NAHREP-driven initiatives. NAHREP-driven initiatives are undertaken by NAHREP or the HWP directly.

2018 RESEARCH REPORT

STATE OF LATINO ENTREPRENEURSHIP EXECUTIVE SUMMARY With this report, the Stanford Latino Entrepreneurship Initiative (SLEI) shares results from the fourth annual Survey of U.S. Latino Business Owners. We examine characteristics of U.S. Latino-owned businesses, identify business approaches that correlate with Latino business success, and highlight important information about Latino entrepreneurs’ attitudes toward and access to capital. Previous SLEI reports have detailed growth trends in the total number of U.S. Latino-owned businesses, estimated to be around 5 million. The U.S. Census Bureau reports that while the total number of businesses in the U.S. declined from 2007 to 2012, the number of Latino-owned businesses grew by 46 percent. Scaled Latino-owned firms are more likely to be certified (58 percent), giving them access to contracts not available to uncertified firms.

Currently, most Latino-owned businesses start small and stay small, with only 3 percent of all Latino-owned companies generating at least $1 million in annual gross revenue. In this report, we share insights into a growth framework that highlights characteristics and strategies prevalent among Latino-owned firms that have successfully scaled. The corollaries of success outlined in the growth framework may be interesting for other Latino firms seeking to grow. We also examine entrepreneurs’ perspectives on barriers to growth and their attitudes about and access to outside capital. We highlight key issues and findings below.

Formal Networking Membership in business organizations such as chambers of commerce or trade associations can develop an entrepreneur’s social capital and can be related to economic returns by virtue of referrals, access to information, or other business opportunities. Scaled firms are more likely to be wellnetworked (77 percent) than the average Latino-owned firm (35 percent).

Several business strategies and characteristics positively correlate to scale.

Business Registration Formally registering a business with local, state, and/or federal agencies can provide personal liability protection, legal benefits, and potential tax benefits. In this study, scaled businesses are more likely to be registered than unscaled businesses (89 percent compared to 67 percent).

Latino-owned firms that generate $1 million+ in annual gross revenue (i.e., scaled firms) are more likely than unscaled firms to hold Minority- and Women-owned Business Enterprise (M/WBE) business certification, to be networked with local business organizations such as chambers of commerce, to formally register their company, to operate a firm in the technology sector, and to export their products.

Technology Sector On average, 8 percent of Latino-owned businesses operate in the technology sector. Scaled firms are more likely to be in the tech sector (24 percent) than unscaled firms (7 percent). Although being in the tech sector did correlate with revenues above $1 million, Latino tech companies still report lack of access to capital as a major factor impacting their profitability.

Business Certification M/WBE certification programs exist to address social and economic disadvantages. Among all Latino-owned firms surveyed, 21 percent have some type of business certification.

ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY Exporting Goods & Services According to the Department of Commerce, U.S. businesses that export not only grow faster but also are nearly 8.5 percent less likely to go out of business than non-exporting businesses.1 We found that 14 percent of all Latino-owned companies export products and services, while 30 percent of scaled Latino companies did so. Latino export businesses are more likely to be profitable, immigrant-owned, scaled, and tech companies. The top two export markets include Mexico (18 percent) and Canada (13 percent). The majority of Latino-owned businesses did not apply for financing in the previous 12 months; among those that did, three-quarters obtained at least a portion of the financing requested.

In the 12-month period prior to taking the survey, 60 percent of Latino business owners did not apply for any financing. Among those who did apply for financing, 30 percent applied for less than $100,000. Scaled firms had all of their funding approved at nearly twice the rate of unscaled firms (51 percent compared to 29 percent). Firms that are highly networked with formal organizations (e.g. chambers of commerce, trade associations, etc.) are also more likely to obtain all of the funding they requested (37 percent compared to 27 percent). For firms that did not apply for financing, their reasons included: funding not needed (30 percent); did not want to accrue debt (20 percent); and did not think the application would be approved (15 percent). Previous research by SLEI, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, and Interise noted that while Latino business owners apply for financing at comparable rates to white business owners, Latino entrepreneurs are more likely to experience a funding shortfall. Twenty-eight percent of Latino business owners received full funding, compared to 49 percent of white business owners.2 In other words, Latino business owners are denied more often than white business owners.

EXCERPT

Personal credit scores are utilized more frequently than business credit scores when securing capital.

Just as personal credit scores provide information to lenders when an individual seeks a mortgage or other personal loan, business scores indicate the credit risk of a business. However, 72 percent of small business owners do not know their business credit score, and 60 percent don’t know how to find it.3 This leads to low rates of usage, even though owners who understand their business credit score are 41 percent more likely to be approved for a loan.4 Our study found that only one-third of Latino-owned employer and scaled firms use a business score to access capital. This means that many firms with proven track records continue to rely on the owner’s personal credit scores when seeking funding for the business. Thus, Latino business owners with good personal credit are more likely to have higher gross business revenue and also use a wider variety of funding. Most Latino entrepreneurs with scaled businesses were raised in lower and lower-middle income households.

As a key measure in the growth framework, scaled businesses, or those that generate more than $1 million in annual gross revenue, serves as one benchmark of business success. Relatedly, business success may be linked to personal success (i.e., household wealth), and social mobility in entrepreneurship has become an important topic of study. In our survey, we find that a plurality of Latino business owners who have grown their company to $1 million or more in annual gross revenue (i.e., scaled firms) report having been raised in lower to lower-middle income households, suggesting that childhood background need not be an insurmountable barrier to building a successful business.

Before joining the Arizona House of Representatives in 2019, Lorenzo Sierra cultivated a long and productive career in the business and economic development worlds. During his nearly 16 years in the Fortune 500 world, he served on various community and business boards. His first foray into leadership was serving as president of the Phoenix chapter of the International Association of Business Communicator (IABC), which at the time was one of the largest business networking groups in the greater Phoenix area. Under his leadership, IABC-Phoenix was named the organization's international chapter of the year. Because of his work with IABC-Phoenix and other community groups, Sierra was named one of the "Most Influential Business Leaders" by the Phoenix Business Journal. Sierra began building his economic development resume with groups such as the Arizona Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (AZHCC) and the City of Phoenix Business and Workforce Development Board (PBWDB). Sierra was a key figure in helping the AZHCC not only survive the recession, but in transforming the AZHCC into one of the preeminent Hispanic chambers in America. The AZHCC now generates millions of dollars in economic impact in Arizona. At the PBWDB, Sierra led efforts to connect area businesses with a qualified workforce.

20 housing starts to nearly 10,000. During his tenure, Avondale also became a destination of choice for retail, manufacturing and casual dining businesses. Some of the biggest wins included King Koil Mattress Co., Copper State Rubber, The Vitamin Shop and Portillo's. In 2018, Avondale was named the Outstanding Economic Development Champion at the Maricopa Association of Government's (MAG) Desert Peak Awards.

In 2014, Sierra was elected to the Avondale City Council. When he joined the council, business developers brought to his attention the difficulty they had working with the city of Avondale.

During his council service, Sierra served on the MAG Economic Development Committee. He also served on the board of the Western Maricopa Coalition (WESTMARC). In Sierra’s current position as a representative serving Arizona's 19th legislative district, he continues to focus on economic development issues.

Sierra led efforts to create incentives that increased economic development projects and housing starts. During his four-year term, he saw the city grow from less than DATO S

The Growing Market Investors Are Missing

The trillion-dollar case for investing in female and multicultural entrepreneurs Women and people of color have long faced barriers starting their own businesses and raising capital to fund them. Some barriers have been structural, others cultural, but all have been costly — and often in ways we’ll never be able to quantify. We can only imagine what businesses might have taken off, what products consumers might have enjoyed, and what innovations and returns might have been realized had women and people of color enjoyed equal access to capital and opportunity. Several years ago, at Morgan Stanley, we came to a view that the marketplace was missing the opportunity to find and finance businesses run by people of color and women. Our instinct told us there was a funding gap in the marketplace. We launched the Multicultural Innovation Lab to learn more about this gap and help close it. The Multicultural Innovation Lab leverages our own networks to find these innovators, advise them on their business plans and connect them to potential investors. We’ve now been through two cohorts of Lab participants, and the experience has validated our belief that there’s a marketplace inefficiency here that needs to be addressed. To dig deeper and examine why this funding gap exists, we have sponsored the research in this report. The findings from this survey of the investing community give us further confidence that we and other investors should be challenging ourselves not only to identify great business and product ideas by diverse teams, but also to propel them. There have been plenty of reports on the obstacles these entrepreneurs face. We decided to flip that question on its head, and ask why aren’t investors seeing these opportunities? And what we find is a gap in investors’ perceptions versus reality, in terms of how much they invest in women and multicultural-led businesses, and also in how they evaluate these businesses in their investment decision-making process.

By illuminating that gap, we aim to open investors’ eyes to the opportunities they are missing. We hope that by identifying this blind spot, this report galvanizes investors to take concrete steps to expand their lens by identifying and investigating more opportunities to invest in women and multicultural-led businesses and realize strong returns. Women and multicultural entrepreneurs abound today, in every sector of the economy, representing opportunity for investors willing to find and fund them. Whether one looks at economic returns or demographic trends, the data points in a similar direction: There is a compelling, numbers-driven case for investing in businesses run by people of color and women, and doing so not only creates returns for investors, but advances the next generation of leading companies and emerging industries, while creating jobs and economic growth. No single initiative or investor will solve this imbalance in access to capital. It will take a concerted effort by a broad range of investors. The effort is worth it — for entrepreneurs and investors — as well as for their consumers and communities. Sincerely, James Gorman, Chairman & CEO

ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY The Growing Market Investors Are Missing

Executive Summary This report reveals a trillion-dollar marketplace inefficiency: The funding gap facing businesses owned by women and people of color in the United States. Morgan Stanley wanted to understand why this inefficiency persists today, so we went directly to the gatekeepers of capital to learn their perspectives, and in the process, uncovered an important driver: Investors don’t see the imbalance.

Our survey showed a clear disconnect between how investors perceive their investments in businesses owned by women and people of color, and how much they actually invest.

Nearly eight in ten investors say that multicultural and female entrepreneurs receive the right amount, or more, of capital than their business models deserve, yet these same investors dramatically underinvest in this population. Women-Owned Businesses Receive ...

Bank Loan Officers

Investors reported a substantial funding gap in their own investments. The median investment by equity investors in business opportunities is nearly $1 million. Yet, for women and minority-owned businesses (WMBEs), median investments are only $213,000 and $185,000, respectively. These reported investment amounts do not explicitly control for the difference in the size of the business, but this gap reflects findings observed by other studies — that WMBEs do not raise as much as their counterparts even when controlling for firm characteristics.

Why Do Investor Perceptions Not Match Their Actual Behavior? Women and multicultural entrepreneurs have trouble making it in the door. If investors don’t see women and multicultural business owners, then they aren’t even aware of the opportunities. Our research found that investors are much less likely to be exposed to WMBEs than to male and non-minority businesses. Specifically, investors are nearly three times more likely to review male-led business opportunities “very frequently,” even though male-led businesses are only 1.5 times as common as women-owned

businesses.1 Similarly, investors are twice as likely to review non-minority businesses than minority businesses. Encouragingly, investors report moving forward with two in five of the opportunities they evaluate, regardless of the demographics of the business owners. It is not a matter of getting turned down by investors, but rather making it in the door in the first place.

Investors, especially white and male investors, aren’t working to increase the diversity of candidates they consider. WMBEs are not a criterion that investors prioritize when looking at opportunities. Among the investors we polled, nearly 40% of men say that investing in women-owned businesses is

not a priority at all, compared to only 7% of female investors. Similarly, 31% of white investors say they do not prioritize investing in minority-owned businesses.

The Hispanic Small Business Report Hispanic Businesses Drive Growth In The New Economy

ANNUAL REPORT 2019

Hispanics have always been vital assets to the U.S. economy and contribute greatly to the nation’s total economic output and tax revenue. Over the years, we have seen the Hispanic population explode, and they’re shattering old stereotypes as they grow. As the Hispanic American population increases, Hispanic entrepreneurs are becoming one of the key growth engines for our economy. In fact, the number of Hispanic-owned businesses is growing at more than twice the rate of non-Hispanic business.

Hispanic-owned companies represent 4.65 million of the 33 million total U.S. businesses.

Today, Hispanic-owned companies represent 4.65 million businesses, or 14% of the 33 million total U.S. businesses. In this report, we’ll give you an in-depth look at Hispanic-owned small businesses – where they are located, who owns them, and what and how they like to buy.

Once again, the USHCC is proud to partner with Claritas, one of the nation’s leading business intelligence firms, to launch this installment of our Hispanic Business and Entrepreneurs report. The contributions made by Hispanic-owned firms are evident in the American economy and this annual study is paramount in presenting the impact Hispanic enterprises have on all aspects of our nation’s economic well-being, including household earnings and purchasing power. In this report, Claritas has provided updated, unbiased data that highlights the expanding influence of America’s Hispanic business community. The findings presented here serve as an accurate source of information for policymakers, corporate executives, the media, and researchers who seek a complete and insightful understanding of the Hispanic market and its thriving entrepreneurial segment.

Executive Summary Hispanic businesses have become a strategic growth opportunity for the U.S. economy. Hispanics are younger, better-educated and more entrepreneurial than many might expect. In fact, we see compelling evidence that Hispanic entrepreneurs are driving job creation and new business formation for the entire country. This is why Claritas produces this annual report – to provide insight into the growth, influence and preferences of this increasingly important business segment. Businesses owned and managed by Hispanic professionals are increasingly likely to employ American workers of all backgrounds and contribute progressively more to the tax revenue of local, state and federal government entities – enabling our economy to stay strong. Furthermore, the well-being of Hispanic businesses is in the interest of all Americans and others who depend on the U.S. economy. That is, as the non-Hispanic white population ages, retires and depends on social security, pensions and Medicare, Hispanic entrepreneurs will begin to bear more of the burden to propel the economy forward. The Claritas Small Business Behavior Track survey provides many insights on the characteristics of Hispanic-owned small businesses that set them apart from other small businesses in the U.S. market. For instance, Hispanic businesses are growing at more than twice the rate of all U.S. firms, as Hispanic households and businesses spread throughout the nation. Hispanic small business owners are disproportionately well-represented in the younger age groups compared to the general Hispanic population and in contrast with non-Hispanic small business owners. Hispanic-owned small businesses are also ahead of the curve for online sales – more than 36% make most or all of their revenue online, compared to less than 18% of non-Hispanic owned businesses. Meanwhile, Hispanic-owned businesses exhibit more varying buying preferences than their non-Hispanic counterparts, as you’ll discover in the pages to follow. We hope you find the insights in this report to be valuable in promoting your products and services to the fast-growing Hispanic-owned small business market.

ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY Looking for B2B Customers with Lifetime Value? Consider Hispanic-Owned Businesses Over 70% of Hispanic small business owners are under the age of 45. Using our proprietary research from the Claritas Small Business Behavior Track survey, which focuses on companies with 50 or fewer employees, we found that Hispanic small business owners were relatively young. More than 25% of Hispanic small business owners are under 30 years of age, compared to 10% of non-Hispanic small business owners. More than 70% of Hispanic small business owners were between ages 18 and 44, compared to less than 40% for small businesses owned by nonHispanics.

In part, the age profiles shown below are a reflection of the demographics of the U.S. population – Hispanics are younger on average than the general population. But these profiles are also a reflection of the entrepreneurial sprit of the Hispanic population. As the chart below illustrates, Hispanics under 45 are more likely to start a business than non-Hispanics under the age of 45.

2019 Hispanic Small Business Owner Spotlight

Bullish economic outlook

3

Growth indicators on the rise

Overview Hispanic small business owners are confident about their 2019 business outlook, with strong majorities planning for increased revenue, growth and expansion, according to our third-annual Hispanic Small Business Owner Spotlight. This year’s Spotlight finds that Hispanic entrepreneurs are significantly more optimistic than their nonHispanic counterparts when it comes to both their business and economic outlooks. Similarly, Hispanic business owners report greater confidence in the direction of the national economy, as well as their local economies. These high optimism levels persist despite lingering economic concerns and new operational challenges. Contrasting with their overarching confidence, Hispanic entrepreneurs are more concerned about many economic issues compared to their non-Hispanic peers.

4

Intensified competition for talent

Additionally, the ultra-competitive job market has created a challenging environment for Hispanic entrepreneurs looking to attract and retain talent. Hispanic business owners are much more likely to have had employees leave over the last year compared to their non-Hispanic peers. As a result, they are also more likely to adjust their hiring strategies to increase their chances of retaining and landing top talent. Despite these obstacles, many Hispanic entrepreneurs report that their business has grown beyond their original expectations and identify family, community and employees as their primary sources of motivation and success. With an eye toward future generations, many hope to pass their business on to their children.

5

Hiring and staffing strategies

Methodology GfK Social and Strategic Research conducted the Bank of America Hispanic Business Owner Spotlight survey between August 30th and October 16th, 2018 using a pre-recruited online sample of Hispanic and Non-Hispanic small business owners. GfK contacted a national sample of 1,067 small business owners in the United States with annual revenue between $100,000 and $4,999,999 and employing between 2 and 99 employees, as well as 303 interviews among Hispanic small business owners. The final results were weighted to national benchmark standards for size, revenue, and region, and, for the Hispanic augment, whether the respondents were primarily English-speaking or Spanish-speaking.

Educational Fairness and Latino Student Success in Arizona Introduction Latino* students are the fastest-growing segment of the U.S. public school population and make up one in four public school students.1 U.S. public schools also serve nearly five million English Learners (ELs) nationwide.2 The Latino student population will only continue to grow. The U.S. Department of Education predicts that by 2027 Latino students will comprise nearly 30% of the student population.3 Unfortunately, significant achievement gaps persist between Latino students and their peers, and that gap is even more pronounced for ELs. On the most recent National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP)† in 2017, only 23% of Latino fourth graders scored proficient or above in reading, as compared to 47% of their White peers.4 In eighth grade reading, that number was only 5% for ELs, compared to 38% for non-EL students.5 The same gaps exist in mathematics where only 20% of Latino eighth graders scored proficient or above, as compared to 44% of their White peers. For ELs, that number drops down to only 6%.6 While there are bright spots—the Latino high school graduation7 and college-going rates8 have both hit historic highs—there is still much work to be done. As the Latino student population continues to grow, it is imperative that we are committed as a nation to raising the academic achievement for Latino and EL students. It is not only the right thing to do, the U.S. economy depends on it.

* The terms “Hispanic” and “Latino” are used interchangeably by the U.S. Census Bureau and throughout this document to refer to persons of Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Central American, Dominican, Spanish, and other Hispanic descent; they may be of any race. † National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) is the largest nationally representative and continuing assessment by various subject areas. The Congressionally mandated project is administered by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) within the U.S. Department of Education and the Institute of Education Sciences (IES). NAEP is given to a representative sample of students across the country. Results are reported for groups of students with similar characteristics (e.g., gender, race and ethnicity, school location), https://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/about/ (accessed November 2018).

Educational Fairness and Latino Student Success in Arizona

In an attempt to revamp accountability in public education and to continue towards the goal of closing achievement gaps, Congress passed the bipartisan Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) that was signed into law in December of 2015. ESSA is the national education law passed to replace No Child Left Behind (NCLB). ESSA maintained many of the key civil rights protections, such as standardsbased accountability and the reporting of data by student subgroups, while simultaneously providing states and districts with a great deal of flexibility and responsibility. ESSA’s goal is to ensure equal opportunity for all students and fully prepare them for success in college and career. However, states now hold the responsibility to design an accountability system that meaningfully holds schools

accountable for the performance of all students, including Latino and EL students. On September 6, 2017, Arizona’s ESSA plan was approved by the U.S. Department of Education.9 With the potential to impact nearly 700,000 Latino students and 100,000 ELs10 enrolled in Arizona’s public schools, Arizona must have an accountability system that prioritizes and includes the performance of all students. This report provides an overview of key provisions in ESSA, discusses how Arizona’s ESSA plan addresses accountability for Latino students and ELs, and provides recommendations to Arizona’s accountability system to better ensure that Latino and EL students in Arizona are receiving a high-quality education that prepares them for both college and career.

A Look at the Achievement Gap in Arizona • In 2017, Latino students had an average score that was 27 points lower than that for White students on the NAEP eighth grade math assessment.11 • On NAEP’s fourth grade reading assessment, only 18% of Latino students scored proficient as compared to 46% of their White peers.12 • On Arizona’s own AzMERIT state assessment,* these gaps remain. For the 2017-2018 school year, only 27% of Latino students passed the eighth grade English Language Arts (ELA) assessment, as compared to 53% of their White peers. That number drops to only 4% for ELs.13 For more data on student achievement in Arizona, please see Appendix A.

* AzMERIT is Arizona’s statewide achievement assessment for ELA and Mathematics. The test is administered each spring to Arizona students in grades three through high school. In high school students take AzMERIT End-of-Course (EOC) tests in ELA and Mathematics that test their proficiency in these subjects.

CONNECTING TO THE COMMUNITY BY DR. FRANCISCO LARA-VALENCIA When Yelena Stanisic visited the Arizona Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (AZHCC) for the first time, she felt welcomed into open arms. “It is genuinely like family there, Stanisic says. “Everyone was so welcoming and warm and they took me in as if I were their own.” Born and raised in Phoenix, Stanisic’s decision to intern at AZHCC helped her realize not only the significant impact Latinos have on Arizona’s economy, but also the strong connection they have with their culture and the community.

TAKING ON THE WORLD As a child of immigrant parents from Serbia, Stanisic grew up with Serbian as her first language. English came with grade school and Spanish was a gift she received from Ms. Tania, her Colombian high school teacher. That gift sparked a passion for the culture and people of Latin America that has led her to earn a scholarship to travel to Peru and work hard to bring the Pulsera Project to her school.

‘AZHCC HELPED ME MAKE A STRONGER CONNECTION WITH THE LATINO COMMUNITY AND TAUGHT ME VALUABLE LESSONS FOR MY FUTURE, AS A STUDENT AND AS AN INDIVIDUAL.’

As the Spanish Honors Society President of the Class of 2018 at BASIS Scottsdale High School, she successfully collected muchneeded money to support community projects in Nicaragua. Above all, though, she all helped other students become aware of social justice issues in Central America. As a current sophomore at ASU’s Barrett Honors College, Yelena is continuing to cultivate her passion for multiculturalism and social development by pursuing a double major in Global Politics and Spanish.

advantage as a student doing research. I also learned how to work in diverse professional settings and work with other people by going to networking events with the AZHCC and communicating with people professionally. Here at the W.P. Carey School of Business, learning to communicate and collaborate with other people is so important. Having that experience under my belt makes me a stronger student and I am forever grateful for that.”

REWARDING WORK As a DATOS intern working 15–20 hours a week, Stanisic researched the demographics and consumption patterns of Latinos in Arizona, studied small and large Latino businesses and helped turn complex data into useful information. She gained new knowledge and skills while at AZHCC in 2018 and recognizes that her internship will have a very positive impact on her education at ASU and her future professional endeavors.

Even though the work was intense and finding solid data sources for DATOS was always a challenging task, Stanisic feels that her experience at AZHCC was not only rewarding, but life changing. “I would go back in a second if I could,” she says, ”but right now I am a busy student at ASU and am extremely excited about my studies and where they will take me in the future.”

“Working on DATOS introduced me to all these different databases and networks,” Stanisic says, “and now at ASU I can use that to my

CREATING THE LIFE SHE WANTS! ¡CREANDO LA VIDA QUE ELLA QUIERE! SUBMI T TED BY GATEWAY COMMUNI T Y COLLEGE

WHEN HER MOTHER-IN-LAW WAS DIAGNOSED WITH SEVERE HUNTINGTON’S DISEASE, FRIDA PROVIDED HER TOTAL CARE. WHILE CARING FOR HER MOTHER-IN-LAW, FRIDA DEVELOPED AN INTEREST IN A HEALTHCARE CAREER AND REALIZED SHE WAS GOOD AT IT.

Frida is a DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) student. She graduated in May 2019 from the Physical Therapy Assistant (PTA) program at GateWay Community College in Phoenix and is preparing for the National Physical Therapy Exam (NPTE). Frida was born and raised in Leon, Guanajuato, Mexico. When she was just nine years old, her parents divorced. Her mom moved to the US, leaving Frida behind with her father and relatives. When she was 13, Frida came to the US as an undocumented immigrant. She was enrolled in elementary school not knowing any English. Through her formative years in elementary and at GateWay’s Early College High School, she bounced between living with her mom and various relatives in Arizona and California.

As her marriage began to deteriorate, first with verbal and eventually physical abuse, Frida began to struggle financially, academically and emotionally and ended up getting a divorce. Despite her financial, personal and academic struggles, Frida persevered with her education and successfully passed the required courses. Program faculty and clinical instructors noted her dedication to her studies as she managed class schedules, studies and working many hours per week.

After high school graduation, Frida got married when she was just 18. When her mother-in-law was diagnosed with severe Huntington’s disease, Frida provided her total care. While caring for her mother-inlaw, Frida developed an interest in a healthcare career and realized she was good at it. She got a job as a physical technician and began learning more about providing patient care. In May 2016, she was accepted into Gateway’s PTA program.

GateWay’s PTA program faculty are confident that Frida will be an excellent PTA because she provides quality care to patients. It’s been a long and difficult journey, but Frida has overcome many obstacles and barriers to achieve her career goal. She is a strong, determined young lady who, at 25, has already come a very long way.

While our preschoolers are in session, the parents attend classes to help them with their own English literacy and to be their child’s best first teacher. The parents also work in their child’s classroom once a week and participate in monthly home visits throughout the school year.

Josie and her family exemplify the long journey A Stepping Stone embarks upon with our families. When they leave LEAF, a modest college scholarship waits for their preschooler upon high school graduation. We reconnect with our families when their children are in high school to tell them about the scholarship and to provide another stepping stone geared toward facilitating post-secondary education access through our Stepping into College Program.

This case study is best told through one mom’s own.

“…I was a parent in the Stepping Stone Foundation classroom and my daughter was a student [there]. As part of the program, I made a commitment to participate in the family literacy program. Thanks to that [decision], our family has a second chance in life.

Our family had no goals; we had no future and were living day by day....I was an older parent starting all over again with a new family and I did not know how to care for them or how to manage a marriage. In Parent Time, I learned that I could do anything I put my mind to. I also learned to set reasonable goals for my family and myself.

In addition to our college access and family literacy programs, A Stepping Stone Foundation facilitates a Two-Generation-Education Affinity group that has been meeting in the Valley metro area for three years. Policymakers, practitioners, elected officials and funders come together to network and work together to make our community better.

I started GED classes with a third-grade level in 1999 and in May of 2003, I received an Associate in Applied Science in Child Care Administration and a CDA [Child Development Associate] and I am still working toward my Bachelor’s [degree]. My self-esteem has become a part of who I am. I take reasonable challenges and always strive to do the best for my children’s education.

2019 UPDATE Josie not only earned her bachelor’s degree in elementary education, she went on to receive her master’s degree and currently still teaches in the Phoenix school district where her child attended A Stepping Stone family literacy program. Her daughter, who had been enrolled in our LEAF program, graduated high school and won a college scholarship from our Billie Gannaway Memorial Scholarship Program in 2017.

I try to volunteer in my children’s classrooms as much as possible and make regular visits with their teachers just to let them know that I am interested in what’s going on. I never participated in school with my other children and they did not get much out of their education. Now we have books all over our house and my children actually sit down and read them.

I actually voted in our last presidential election. My husband and I donate blood and we visit the library often. We try to give back by making donations of clothing to Interfaith Shelter….I am giving back to my community by working at Isaac Preschool.

PROFILE

PHOENIX CODING ACADEMY BY RICHARD FRANCO The Phoenix Coding Academy (PCA), a specialty school within the Phoenix Union High School District (PXU), is committed to growing students from being tech consumers to tech creators. Teacher teams will use inquiry investigations, integrated across contents to support all learners. Student-centered learning experiences focus on meeting student needs by highlighting humanity at its best so students can discover and create their own meaning.

school grade point average is 3.16. Our Latinx students hold a 3.17 grade point average and a 94.6% attendance rate. There are many great people involved with our school. Susana Masamery, one of our software development teachers was born and raised in Mexico. She worked in Mexico as a developer and also taught courses in Hermosillo. In addition, we are grateful for the support of Jaime Casap, chief education evangelist at Google.

This innovative specialty small school, focused on computer coding and multiple technology pathways through an inquiry-based instructional design, is one of the first public high schools of its kind. As the needs of industry and the workforce constantly change, our students will be prepared to enter a job market where technology and computer science skills are a basic requirement. Employment opportunities in technology-related careers are growing at a faster rate than other industries.

“The future economy is about digitalization,” Casap says. “As I travel around the world, every organization, every business, every country is talking about digitalization.” Digitization includes everything from computer science to machine learning, artificial intelligence, AR, VR, automation and robotics. The language of digitalization is computer science. Computer science is how the digitized world is developed and run. It does not mean that every student must become a computer scientist. It means that students must understand and speak the language of computer science because it is already part of every industry.

Inquiry design and project-based learning provide the instructional framework, innovation and computer science and academic courses are integrated to offer a dynamic, student-centered academic experience. At PCA, students will receive a full high school curricula of core academic classes and electives, including career and technical education (CTE) classes. Community and industry partnerships will facilitate guest instructors, workshops, field trips, mentors, job-shadowing and internships for students and staff. CTE pathways such as software development (gaming, applications and web), computer networking and cybersecurity may lead to select industry certification and college dual enrollment. At PCA, all of our Career and Technical Education teachers have industry experience in the courses they teach and are preparing students for success in college, career and life.

Digitalization is an opportunity for students, especially our Hispanic/Latinx students in Phoenix. The Hispanic/Latinx market is a trillion-dollar market and the idea that we will have Hispanic/ Latinx students exposed to four years of computer science while at the Phoenix Coding Academy is exciting. “I would like to see all Hispanic/Latinx businesses develop in Phoenix and I know the students at PCA will be at the forefront of what is driving the future,” Casap says.

GET INVOLVED

We are proud of our school’s identity and our track record of success with our Latinx students. Fifty-three percent of our student population identify as Latinx and we are proud to report all are on track to graduate. We have a 94.5% attendance rate and our overall

In fall 2016 the Wisconsin HOPE Lab at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and the Association of Community College Trustees (ACCT), with support from the Kresge Foundation, conducted a large-scale survey to better understand food and housing insecurity among community college students. The effort built on a similar survey of ten community colleges during the 2014-2015 academic year. In total, seventy institutions from twenty-four states participated in the 2016 survey. More than ever, maintaining an adequate standard of living requires postsecondary education. In Maricopa County, 10 percent of those with some college or an associate’s degree live below the poverty line, compared to 16 percent of those with only a high school diploma.i The median annual salary for a Maricopa resident with some college or an associate’s degree is $35,665, 25 percent higher than the $28,468 earned by the median high school graduate.ii These differences in economic outcomes are particularly meaningful in Maricopa, where the cost of living is 12 percent higher than average.iii The Economic Policy Institute estimates that, in order to maintain an adequate standard of living, a household with 2 adults and 2 children in Maricopa County must earn $67,468 annually.iv Two adults each earning the median wage for those with associate’s degrees ($35,665 X 2 = $71,330) can attain this standard. There is a pronounced shortfall, however, for households whose adults have only graduated high school ($28,468 X 2 = $56,936, or $10,532 less than what is needed). Although higher education has become a prerequisite for economic success in Maricopa County, college students themselves often have difficulty accessing sufficient food and housing as they pursue their academic goals. To better understand the challenges faced by community college students in particular, this report presents a profile of survey participants in the Maricopa County Community College District (MCCCD). In addition, the report compares districtlevel results with aggregated results from other colleges in the West Census Region (not including MCCCD) and from the national survey sample. The West Census Region includes colleges in Washington, Oregon, California, Arizona, New Mexico, Montana, and Idaho. National sample results are similar to those found in the associated survey report Hungry and Homeless in College: Results from a National Study of Basic Needs Insecurity in Higher Education.v

Food Insecurity Food insecurity is the limited or uncertain availability of nutritionally adequate and safe foods, or the ability to acquire such foods in a socially acceptable manner.v i To assess food insecurity among students, the survey instrument included the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) 6-item Food Security Survey Module (FSSM).v ii Table 1 displays results from the FSSM. Across all 6 items in the USDA module, MCCCD students were slightly less likely to answer affirmatively than students in both the West Census Region and national samples.

The USDA recommends assigning each respondent a score based on the total number of affirmative answers on the 6-item instrument. That score determines a person’s food security status via a four category scale, where a score of zero corresponds to high food security, one to marginal food security, two to four translate to low food security, and scores of five or six indicate very low food security. Taken together, people who report low and very low food security can be referred to as food insecure.v iii Table 2 shows food security scores and categories across the three samples. Sixty-four percent of MCCCD students reported marginal or worse food security during the previous 30 days. Thirty-one percent of MCCCD students report very low food security, which reflects, “multiple indications of reduced food intake and disrupted eating patterns due to inadequate resources for food.ix MCCCD respondents reported low and very low food security (52 percent) less frequently than other students surveyed in the regional (61 percent) and national (56 percent) survey samples.

Housing Insecurity Housing insecurity can involve unaffordable housing, poor housing quality, crowding, and frequent moves.x The survey instrument included five items to assess whether a student has experienced housing insecurity in the past twelve months. Students are classified as housing insecure if they answered affirmatively to at least one of those items. Table 3 shows district, regional, and national housing insecurity statistics. MCCCD students reported comparable levels of housing insecurity (49 percent) relative to other students across the West Census Region (54 percent) and the nation (51 percent). These rates are also similar to those measured in the Wisconsin HOPE Lab’s 2014-15 survey. Table 3: Prevalence of Housing Insecurity (Past 12 Months) MCCCD

YOU DON’T NEED MORE TIME–YOU NEED TO PRIORITIZE THE TIME YOU HAVE We are all guilty of finding excuses for why we can't do the things we know we should, like losing five pounds, calling our relatives or making time to volunteer.

How do they manage to achieve the perfect balance between their professional and personal lives? How do they make time for others when they probably don’t even have time for themselves?

houses for deserving families. What really stood out for these two busy business owners that motivated them to volunteer was the organization's focus on highlighting the community in need rather than marketing their volunteers. In other words, the group did not support the "Barbie Savior" type of experience. “I wasn’t interested in the all-too-common volunteer experience centered on minimum impact and maximum exposure on Instagram,” Eric says. About 60 volunteers, including Eric and Natalia, traveled to a remote area 30 minutes north of the tourist town of Puerto Peñasco, MX. It is an area where many local families have suffered the consequences of the vicissitudes of the U.S economy. In just three days, these volunteers built three humble houses–from foundation to ceiling–for 1Mission to give to three families in need.

HOW TO BUILD A HOUSE IN THREE DAYS

Business entrepreneurs Eric Diaz and Natalia Ronceria Ceballos are certainly two of the busiest people in Phoenix, but that has not stopped them from giving back to the community. Besides owning and managing multiple businesses, Eric and Natalia make creating a positive impact a priority, even when they are overloaded with many other tasks. "It’s not always easy,” Natalia says, “and many times it can be quite tiring, but it is so worth it."

Day 1: After leveling the land where the houses were built, the volunteers laid the borders and poured the concrete floor, which dried overnight.

HOW DID THEY GET THERE? How did these two entrepreneurs end up on the outskirts of Puerto Penasco, MX, building houses without knowing anything about construction?

Day 2: The bulk of the work took place on the second day, including the wood framing for the walls, the window cutouts and roof assembly and placement. All the work was done without the use of power tools.

Eric and Natalia have been friends and business colleagues for more than seven years. Last summer, they heard about 1Mission, a nonprofit organization that gathers volunteers to build small

“We only have our time, talent and treasure that we can invest,” Natalia regularly advises others.

HOW MUCH TIME DO YOU REALLY NEED?

Make sure to invest your time, talent and treasures in objectives and experiences that make you a better you–just like Eric and Natalia are doing.

It only took Eric and Natalia one weekend to set aside their daily responsibilities and embark on a journey to make an impact on peoples’ lives through volunteering. The key for them to finding balance is knowing what is important and what is not. Eric and Natalia agree how important it is to say, "yes!" to fulfilling experiences and "no, thanks" to opportunities that will not add value to their lives.

ABOUT ERIC AND NATALIA Eric Diaz is the co-founder of Nativa, a Multicultural Marketing Agency in Phoenix and the software company OYE! Business Intelligence. He also owns Coworking on 15th, a business that provides affordable office and convening space for other small ventures in the Phoenix area. Natalia Ronceria Ceballos is a bilingual coach and facilitator of knowledge and runs La NRC, a company dedicated to building communities and strategic partnerships through bilingual training and education. Additionally, both Natalia and Eric are on the board of Collectivo, a local nonprofit with a mission to create a vibrant, networking community for marketing and media professionals interested in the Hispanic market.

Executive Summary

U.S. HISPANIC HOMEOWNERSHIP IN 2018 AND OVER THE PAST DECADE

In 2018, Hispanics achieved a net gain of 362,000 homeowners. This raised the Hispanic homeownership rate from 46.2 percent in 2017 to 47.1 percent in 2018 and was the largest net gain for Hispanics since 2005.¹

CONCLUSION In 2008, the Great Recession rocked the U.S. economy, upended the housing industry and caused millions of foreclosures nationwide. During that time, homeownership losses for Hispanics were particularly devastating.

POPULATION TRENDS

2018

45.6

HOUSEHOLD FORMATION

In 2018, Hispanics formed 485,000 new households, accounting for 32.4 percent of total U.S. household formations. According to Harvard’s Joint Center for Housing Studies, Hispanic are projected to increase by 4.6 million households between 2015 and 2025. Hispanic household growth continues to outpace that of overall U.S. household growth and is anticipated to do so for the foreseeable future.

SOURCE: U.S. CENSUS BUREAU

After twelve consecutive years of declines that affected all population segments, the Hispanic segment helped pull the nation out of a devastating housing recession in 2015 when it became the first ethnic demographic to show an increase to its post-recession homeownership rate. Hispanics have been the only ethnic demographic group to raise their homeownership rate in each of the past four years. Over the past decade, Hispanics have accounted for 62.7 percent of net U.S. homeownership gains, growing from 6,303,000 homeowners to 7,877,000, a total increase of 1,574,000 Hispanic homeowners.2 This upward trajectory for Hispanic homeownership is consistent with projections made by the Urban Institute that Hispanics will account for more than half of all new homeowners over the next several years and for 56 percent of all new homeowners by 2030.3

INCOME TRENDS In 2017, the most current data available, Hispanic median household income also rose to $50,486, accounting for the largest increase in income (3.7 percent) among all racial or ethnic population groups.4

At 58.9 million, the Hispanic population represents a rising share of the U.S. population, equating to 18.1 percent of the overall U.S. population.5 Between 2016 and 2017, the Hispanic population increased by 1.5 million people, accounting for over half of the nation’s population growth. Hispanics are the country’s largest ethnic minority and have accounted for more than half of total U.S. population growth since 2000.6

AGE At a median age of 28.7, Hispanics are younger than the median age of non-Hispanic Whites (43.2 years) and the median overall U.S. age of 37.8 years.7 A majority (60.4 percent) of all U.S. Hispanics are 35 or younger with over a quarter (27.2 percent) as millennials between the ages of 19 to 35, many of whom are entering their prime home buying years.8

LABOR FORCE PARTICIPATION At 66.3 percent, Hispanics continue to have the highest labor force participation rate of any demographic and are ahead of the overall U.S. labor force participation rate of 62.9.9 Their high participation rate is due in part to the youth of the demographic as Hispanic millennials comprise nearly 30 percent of all Hispanics.

Today, unemployment is at historic lows and the economy is amid the longest expansion on record. These advances are due in large part to the contributions of Hispanics from 2008 to 2018, especially in three key areas: •Hispanics were responsible for 81 percent of the U.S. labor force growth.11 •Hispanics accounted for 39.6 percent of U.S. household formations.12 •Hispanic homeownership gains represented 62.7 percent of the U.S. net homeownership increase.13 In the years following the recession, Hispanics have remained passionate about homeownership. According to Fannie Mae’s 2018 National Housing Survey, 88 percent of Hispanics said that homeownership is a good investment longterm, and 92 percent said that, in the future, they are more likely to be homeowners than renters. In 2018, Hispanics posted their largest homeownership gain since 2005. Despite concerns about housing inventory and changing government policies related to homeownership, the leading indicators, such as household formation, income trends, age and consumer sentiment, suggest that Hispanics will continue to drive homeownership gains in America for the foreseeable future.

U.S. HISPANICS ACCOUNT FOR: 2018

HOUSEHOLD COMPOSITION

2017

At an average of 3.7 persons, Hispanic households are larger than the U.S. average of 3.0 and are more likely to be a multigenerational household.10 Hispanic households are also more likely to be comprised of two parents and at least one child.

QUALITY AFFORDABLE FOOD

PROFILE

A HOUSE FULL OF LOVE ALSO REQUIRES HEALTHY FOOD BY MARCOS J. GAUCIN

SHE IS TAKING CARE OF EVERYONE BY HERSELF AND BECAUSE OF HER PART-TIME JOB, SHE DOES NOT QUALIFY FOR ANY GOVERNMENT ASSISTANCE.

“It’s hard to pay bills when you don’t know when the check is coming or how much it will be. School uniforms, food and rent are expensive,” Angelica says. When the situation becomes too much of a struggle, the family turns to St. Mary’s Mobile Pantry program. With a site close by, they can pick up fresh fruits and vegetables, canned goods, rice, beans, pasta and so much more.

Working at a hospital for the last two years, Veronica checks in patients at the front desk. She likes the work and the interaction with new patients. As a single mother, though, Veronica struggles with her household budget and trying to put food on the table every day. The house is full of love with her stepdaughter, daughter “IT’S HARD TO PAY BILLS SOMETIMES, VERONICA SAYS. and granddaughter, but “THERE HAVE BEEN MANY TIMES I’VE STRUGGLED.” sometimes there is a lack of food. She is taking care of everyone by herself and, because of her part-time job, she does not qualify for any government assistance.

WITH A FAMILY OF SIX, ANGELICA AND HER HUSBAND SOMETIMES HAVE A HARD TIME MAKING IT THROUGH THE MONTH.

“My girls like vegetables,” Angelica says. “They really like everything except for onions. They’re pretty good eaters. It makes me feel very sad that so many children in Arizona are going hungry and do not know where their next meal is coming from. I know schools are trying to have meals for them–breakfasts, lunches and snacks after school.”

Veronica turned to St. Mary’s Food Bank for help. Taking advantage of our Mobile Pantry program, she can choose food–fresh fruits and vegetable, meat, bread and so much more–in an “open air” model close to her house. Veronica’s two-year-old granddaughter really loves the fresh fruit. Today Veronica is most appreciative of the available meat and bottled water.

To St. Mary’s many supporters, Angelica says, “Thank you for all the help and the hours that you volunteer.”

“It’s great,” she says, “because it’s getting warm outside.” As Veronica and her small granddaughter walked away, Veronica says, “Thank you for taking time out and helping and being considerate of others.”

HELPING A MOTHER PROVIDE NUTRITIOUS MEALS FOR HER CHILDREN

Angelica knows electricity is important to keep her household running, but when the light bill is the highest during the summer months, it can be a struggle. With a family of six, Angelica and her husband sometimes have a hard time making it through the month. Budgeting is difficult. Her husband’s job has recently turned into an “as-needed” basis, which makes the pay inconsistent.

Summer Nutrition includes the Summer Food Service Program and free and reduced-price National School Lunch Program, including the Seamless Summer Option. School Year NSLP numbers reflect free and reduced-price lunch participation during the regular school year. Ratio of Summer Nutrition to NSLP is the number of children in Summer Nutrition per 100 in NSLP. 4 The Nevada state child nutrition agency provided updated average daily participation data for the National School Lunch Program for July 2017. The updated data resulted in Nevada’s 2017 rank moving from 50 to 42. State rankings and national numbers for 2017 were adjusted accordingly. 2 3

QUALITY AFFORDABLE FOOD

ANHELO RESTAURANT Anhelo is a Spanish word that means longing and yearning. It’s simply, “desire.” For many years, Chef Ivan Jacobo popped up here and there capturing Valley foodies’ hearts and taste buds.

culture in kitchen and front end. He believes creative freedom will grow that future. Restaurant jobs, depending on the property, can be prone to bullying, derision or little respect for workers. At Anhelo, the ability to experience personal growth, take risks with new ideas and experiment without recrimination, won over his staff. Every employee, including Jacobo, sports an “Anhelo” tattoo.

Chef Ivan, of Hidden Kitchen fame, opened Anhelo in February 2019, in downtown Phoenix’s historic Heritage Square. He now serves diners in its landmark location between the James Beard awardwinning restaurants Nobuo at Teeter House and Pizzeria Bianco. Many meals have been served since Jacobo’s food-based journey began in culinary school. Eager to learn everything he could about food, he filled his days outside the classroom with a full-time job and slipping into every catering event he found. That work ethic drew the attention of one of his teachers. Encouraging him to start working in a kitchen, Jacobo moved to San Francisco, leaving behind the life and people he knew.

Giving back to the community in which he was raised, Ivan funds an annual scholarship to place a student at the culinary school he attended. He complements the scholarship by offering the student a job at Anhelo upon graduation. “The thing that motivates me the most–food–is literally giving me the opportunity to help other people achieve their dreams,” Jacobo says.

When he returned home to Arizona, his only dream was to open a restaurant.

He also is proud of the other ways Anhelo contributes to the community.

Jacobo started in a food truck kitchen. After a vehicle accident, he embraced the nascent “pop-up” dining experience. Sometimes, dinner was at his apartment; other times, Chef Ivan popped up in local parks. At all times, his goal was always to make the experience feel like home.

“Our house wine donates a percentage of all sales to charity, he says. “Now picture 10 restaurants doing the exact same thing. This world would be a lot better if more people thought about it this way.” —Submitted by City of Phoenix Community and Economic Development Department

Working two jobs, catering meals and then creating pop-up restaurants here and there, Chef Ivan saved enough money to open Anhelo. Most of the construction in the restaurant came from his own hands. Ivan painted the interior of the historic house and built the tables and the restaurant’s bar. Now that his dream restaurant Anhelo is open, Jacobo is systematically changing the Valley’s culinary landscape and culture. In the Anhelo kitchen and dining room, Chef Ivan empowers his employees to make decisions, an authority not common in fine dining restaurants. His sommelier, who has worked in the food industry for 27 years, has never before had the opportunity to create a wine list. His bartender, who has worked all over the Valley, never before had the opportunity to create her own drinks. “If I can provide that opportunity to grow their skills, why wouldn’t I do it?” Jacobo says.

OPEN FOR DINNER TUES‒SUN AT 5 P.M.

The chef wants to demonstrate to restaurateurs that a new generation of leaders will change the Valley’s food culture and the

QUALITY AFFORDABLE FOOD

MORENO’S MEXICAN GRILL BY MARY RABAGO This family business started in 2002 as a hot dog street cart. It soon transformed into a taco truck and is now seven restaurants in the East Valley in the Phoenix metro area.

Going the extra mile to offer quality and consistency is a must for Angel Moreno. Moreno’s Mexican Grill is one of the few places in Arizona where they cook their carne asada on the grill, outside, just like you would do at home. It is always fresh and juicy, ready for clients to enjoy at any of their locations or take home complete with the traditional beans, rice, salsa and guacamole.

Like many immigrants with an entrepreneurial spirit, Angel Moreno had an American Dream: He wanted to create a business that would help him support his family and give them a better life. It was a dream that did not come easy, but was possible through persistence and hard work. Angel Moreno never forgets his humble beginnings as an entrepreneur, when on many occasions his patrons would offer light with their cars so he could serve them the delicious Sonoran hot dogs and carne asada tacos late into the night. It was flavors that were only available to them at the corner of Broadway and Horne in Mesa, where Moreno first started his business. The corner is now the home of the first and original Moreno’s Mexican Grill restaurant.

Moreno’s Mexican Grill employs more than 300 people in the Valley, so the dream of one immigrant is now helping hundreds of households and the state’s economy by providing work and opportunities for growth.

The overwhelming success of Moreno’s Mexican Grill has been its family-based system and the environment it offers to employees. To put it simply, Moreno runs his business as a family. When it comes to authentic taste and consistency, Angel Moreno does not minimize efforts and will not allow room for error. The flavor of the restaurant’s traditional dishes like the Durango chile relleno, the Sonoran hot dogs or carne asada street tacos is just like his mother use to prepare for him and his siblings. The experience the restaurant offers clients is carefully planned out. Moreno wants every person who comes into his restaurants to feel at home. He wants Mexican clients to enjoy the food that their mothers and grandmothers would prepare at home and wants his non-Hispanic clients to experience the authentic flavor of Mexico and the family and welcoming environment that is what Moreno’s Mexican Grill is all about. The restaurant also offers catering services with the same attention to detail and welcoming for corporate events and family gatherings and celebrations.

QUERENCIA Y HERENCIA:

ENJOYING THE OUTDOORS AND ELEVATING OUR VOICES TO PROTECT OUR PUBLIC LANDS BY JULIO ESPINOZA From southwestern deserts to northern forestland, Latinos throughout America have had a strong connection to our nation’s diverse landscape. For generations, we have enjoyed public lands as hunters, anglers and outdoor enthusiasts. Because of this longstanding connection to the land, it is hard to understand why our community is often overlooked by mainstream conservation efforts.

annually to the economy and support 7.6 million American jobs. In Arizona, the Outdoor Recreation economy generates $21.2 billion in consumer spending, $5.7 million in wages/salaries, 201,000 in direct jobs and $1.4 billion in state and local tax revenue. Keeping our future in mind, we must continue to plan for the success of our communities in a way that is sustainable–and accessible.

In Arizona alone, according to the most recent data provided by the Pew Research Center, 31% of our state’s population is Hispanic. A recent poll by Latino Decisions found that Latinos rate protecting the environment as one of the most important issues we face. Yet, seven in 10 Latinos have never been contacted by an organization working to reduce global warming.

In addition to policy advocacy, HECHO also serves as a key partner and co-host of the Arizona Game & Fish Department’s Family Fishing Days across Arizona. Keeping in line with their mission to pass down outdoor traditions from generation to generation, HECHO helps bring free events to local communities that provide opportunities for Latino youth and their families to enjoy the outdoors together. HECHO also partners on these events with leaders throughout Arizona, including Maricopa County Supervisor Steve Gallardo, who believes that when youth and their families can spend time in the outdoors together, it reinforces the important cultural heritage of Latinos’ connection to the land and water. And for the long-term, these experiences will demonstrate the importance of protecting parks and public lands and the value of clean water for generations to come.

This exclusion is exactly why Hispanics Enjoying Camping, Hunting and the Outdoors (HECHO) exists: to make Latinos more visible in conservation policy advocacy through leadership development and lifting up the strong connections Latinos have to the outdoors. HECHO is active in ensuring that Hispanic voices are heard on local, state and federal policy issues—from the adoption of an Arizona Public Lands Day to the permanent authorization of a federal fund, called the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF), which supports state and local parks, recreational projects and the conservation of public lands.

HECHO’s mission has never been more important than it is now. Established in 2014, HECHO reflects the Hispanic community's deeply rooted commitment to conserving our land, air and water. Protecting healthy watersheds, clean air and robust wildlife habitats is a responsibility that we all have and HECHO is determined to create opportunities for Hispanic voices to be heard as important stakeholders in conservation.

Recently, several HECHO members traveled to Washington, D.C., from Arizona to advocate for LWCF to become permanent. The Grand Canyon, Lake Pleasant and Cesar Chavez Park, as well as several of our forests, rivers and lakes, community parks, trails and ball fields have benefited from $243 million in funding, thanks to LWCF. On March 12, 2019, we celebrated, along with many others, the historic victory of permanent reauthorization for the LWCF.

HECHO’s leaders are currently working to expand their reach and hope to be able to make a difference for more people. They are recruiting new partners from the community to invest in the future of HECHO or to support future events and programming.

Permanent funding for conservation programs like the LWCF is important to the success of any outdoor recreation economy, ensuring that our public lands stay public and that the water is safe to use. According to the Outdoor Industry Association’s 2017 National Recreation Economy Report, hunting, fishing, camping, hiking and other outdoor recreation activities contribute a total of $887 billion

PROFILE

LIZ ARCHULETA: WOMAN OF COURAGE BY JULIO ESPINOZA Elizabeth “Liz” Archuleta comes from one of the first Hispanic pioneer families. The family arrived in Flagstaff in the early days and became an important part of the Mexican community in northern Arizona.

Supervisor Archuleta’s tenure, the CPWAC completed a water supply study, developed a water ethic, obtained congressional authority and funding for a feasibility study, and has completed water modeling. She also served on the Governor’s Arizona Statewide Water Advisory Council and has testified on behalf of Arizona and Coconino County regarding preservation of the Colorado River. Supervisor Archuleta has been instrumental in shaping public lands policy on the national level. As chairwoman of the National Association of Counties Public Lands Steering Committee (2007–2009), she led the successful reauthorization of the Secure Rural Schools and Community Self-Determination Act (SRS) and full funding of Payment in Lieu of Taxes (PILT) for all counties. She testified before Congress on numerous occasions on the importance of reauthorizing these programs, both which provided millions of dollars in funding for counties across the nation. In addition, Archuleta has supported public policy to increase forest health, forest-related industries and environmental protection and preservation.

Archuleta is now serving her sixth term on the Coconino County board of supervisors and is the first Latina woman to be elected in the county in its 120-year history. The second of three children, Archuleta was inspired by her father, Remigio and mother, Isabel, who helped to organize their community and taught her the importance of working hard and giving back. Liz went on to walk in their footsteps and change her community for the better. From the age of 9, she worked on the family’s ice cream truck, a business started by her mother. Liz’s family instilled in her an understanding of the value of education. In fact, all the proceeds from the ice cream business put her and her two siblings through college.

One of the most challenging periods of Archuleta’s service has been in the past few years, dealing with the greatest disaster in the history of Coconino County–the Schultz fire and floods that severely affected her district. Throughout the disaster, Supervisor Archuleta was a calm leader who led her district and its residents through the crisis and has secured millions of dollars in funding to mitigate the flooding.

Liz graduated from college with a dual degree in Spanish and speech communications and a minor in business. She spent 19 years at Northern Arizona University (NAU) and developed programs to encourage Hispanic, African American and Native American youth to pursue college educations and to encourage young women to enter nontraditional careers.

Beyond her public service, Liz has developed cultural programs to strengthen Flagstaff. In memory of her mom, Isabel, Liz started the Hispanic Mother–Daughter Program at NAU, a higher education outreach program for eighth-grade girls and their mothers. In 2002, Liz became the first Latina to lead a campaign for the United Way of Northern Arizona. As Chairman of the Board, she helped the United Way raise more than $1 million for health and human services.

In 1996, at the age of 31, she became the youngest person to serve as a Coconino County Supervisor and the first Latina to hold a seat on the powerful board. She funded her first campaign selling homemade enchiladas. Since that first election, Supervisor Archuleta has served on the board for 23 years and has a reputation as a passionate advocate for the local communities and neighborhoods.

On the board of supervisors, Supervisor Archuleta started the first youth internship programs and developed new community outreach and neighborhood leadership practices. She formed the Sunnyside Neighborhood Association, a collaboration of resident leaders, parents, the police department and the United Way.

On the state level, Liz has served as the president of the County Supervisors Association, representing the 15 counties and 55 county supervisors in the State of Arizona. She has been the leader of discussions on water issues at the state level and in northern Arizona, emphasizing the need for the development of regional solutions.

Liz has received many awards during her career, including the Athena Award recognizing her achievements as the most outstanding woman in Flagstaff and the statewide Valle del Sol Exemplary Leadership Award. During Arizona’s Centennial, she was recognized as one of Arizona’s Latina Trailblazers.

As a result, she established the Coconino Plateau Water Advisory Council (CPWAC) and has served as its chair for several years. During

FREE MOBILE MEDICAL CLINICS RESTORE DIGNITY BY STEPHANIE JARNAGAN Roberto first walked into a Mission of Mercy free mobile clinic in 2018. He had just been released from the hospital after battling a nearfatal blood infection and was still struggling to control his diabetes. Having been denied Medicaid coverage and unable to work due to severe pain caused by his illness, he had exhausted the basic health safety net designed to catch Arizonans like him. However, Mission of Mercy stepped in and was able to provide the care key to controlling his chronic condition. Now, more than a year later, Roberto’s health is back on track.

Arizona has one of the highest rates of uninsured people in the nation, for all individuals and specifically children. The most recent studies suggest that 10% of Hispanic children living in Arizona remain uninsured. Mission of Mercy’s healthcare services seek to keep the uninsured out of emergency rooms and hospital beds. Mission of Mercy and its seven mobile health clinics throughout Maricopa County allow uninsured patients like Roberto to manage chronic conditions including diabetes, hypertension and asthma through ongoing care. The clinics, which rely on a volunteer base of 250+ healthcare professionals, also provide basic medical care for illnesses and infections. Mission of Mercy is 100 percent privately funded, receiving no federal or state funding.

Mission of Mercy is driven by its mission to restore dignity and provide “healing through love” with free mobile health care and medications for the uninsured and underinsured in metro Phoenix. Over the last two decades, Mission of Mercy has provided more than 239,000 pro bono patient visits and dispensed more than 384,000 free prescription medications to individuals like Roberto who have fallen through the cracks of a broken healthcare system. At Mission of Mercy, no one is excluded from access to high quality, compassionate care. Approximately 60% of the patients served are Hispanic and many speak only Spanish. All clinics are staffed with volunteer bilingual medical interpreters to ensure clear communication between doctors and patients. “We serve anyone who needs primary care services regardless of age, status, background or ability to pay,” Executive Director Paula Carvalho explains. “This means no sliding scales or qualifying process. And we not only provide care and treatment for acute health concerns, we also provide holistic medical care and education for those dealing with chronic conditions like diabetes.”

CASE STUDY

ACCESS TO CARE

COMMUNITY HEALTHCARE NEEDS STUDY BY GLENN IWATA

STUDY HIGHLIGHTS

The purpose of this report is to summarize the results of a study assessing Arizona’s healthcare needs. A telephone survey of 400 Arizona residents was conducted during May/June 2019 and asked them a series of questions about their healthcare and health insurance to determine potential problem areas that need to be addressed.

Arizonans consider addiction and mental health issues the most serious healthcare problems facing the state. While all of the healthcare issues surveyed were considered serious to varying degrees, addiction and mental health were considered the most serious problems. On the other hand, only one-third (39%) considered sexually transmitted diseases a serious problem.

“Elements of a Healthy Community” was the focus of the 2018 DATOS report and provided an overall perspective of where Arizona should focus improvement efforts. For the 2019 report, the Hispanic Chamber is taking a deeper look at one of the 12 key elements of a healthy community: having “access to healthcare and coverage.”

Patients are satisfied with their healthcare providers. Most Arizonans feel their healthcare providers are competent, good listeners and take sufficient time with them. The only measure that was significantly lower than the other traits was long wait times (66% experience this issue compared to over 80% for the other care/skills traits).

WestGroup Research contacted heads of households throughout Arizona and asked them to rate their communities from three perspectives:

While most feel their health insurance meets their needs, about one quarter have chosen not to receive treatment/visit a doctor due to high deductibles or copays. This response was not solely an incomedriven issue. Almost one-quarter of higher income households ($100K+ annual income) also felt this way.

1. Seriousness of various health issues 2. Quality of care provided by health care professionals 3. Reactions to specific healthcare issues, impact of medical costs on services used

A review of various demographic comparisons highlighted that low income Arizonans (<$25K annual income) had significantly different views toward their healthcare issues than the higher income groups. Lower income Arizonans are…

TABLE OF CONTENTS Study Highlights Conclusions/Recommendations

• More likely to feel addiction, mental health, eating disorders and sexually transmitted diseases are very serious issues compared to those in higher income groups. • Less likely to feel their medical provider is easy to understand/ communicates well or provided reasonable wait times. • More likely to have a friend/family member join when visiting a doctor. • More likely to be on Medicare, Medicaid or insured and significantly less likely to be on group health insurance (using $35K annual income as the threshold point for these questions).

SUMMARY OF FINDINGS 1. What are Arizonans biggest healthcare concerns? 2. How much of a problem do Arizonans consider various health issues? 3. What “service-related” issues are occurring related medical providers serving their patients? 4. What other healthcare related issues surfaced?

Similarly, Hispanics tended to have different views toward healthcare issues than non-Hispanics. Hispanics are…

COMMUNITY HEALTHCARE NEEDS STUDY

SUMMARY OF FINDINGS

• More likely to feel eating disorders are an extremely serious problem than non-Hispanics. • More likely to have a friend/family member join when visiting a doctor, choose not to receive healthcare services due to high deductible/copays and have considered going to Mexico to receive medical treatment due to lower costs. • More likely to have group health insurance and less likely to be on Medicare.

1. What are Arizonans biggest healthcare concerns?

SUMMARY

This question was used to determine top-of-mind reactions to Arizona healthcare issues before discussing specific topics. Costs, coverage and care – Top-of-mind reactions to their biggest healthcare concerns highlighted how much residents are affected by rising healthcare costs. Healthcare costs was mentioned most often even after asking them, “In addition to rising costs, what are your biggest concerns, if any, about the healthcare you and/or your family receive?”

CONCLUSIONS/RECOMMENDATIONS 1. Behavioral health issues are considered more serious healthcare issue than diseases such as cardiovascular, cancer or diabetes. While the “big three” diseases account for twothirds of the deaths in the US (American Heart Association, https://www.ahajournals.org/doi/full/10.1161/01. str.0000133321.00456.00), Arizonans consider addiction and mental health issues more serious problems. This appears to be driven by increased public visibility of behavioral health problems compared to long-time histories associated to those top three diseases. From a prioritization standpoint, these behavioral health issues appear to have a negative impact on the image of a healthy community and represent a starting point to address the problems associated with “access to healthcare and coverage.”

After costs, the next most often mentioned concern was coverage (which was also often from a cost-related perspective) and then quality of care.

RESULTS • A concern about high health insurance premiums was the top concern at 31%. The percentage would have probably been significantly higher if they were not told, “In addition to rising costs…” Those mentioning high health insurance premiums were relatively consistent across all income groups, ethnicity and geographic groups.

2. Low-income Arizonans experience the most severe impact of the changing healthcare landscape. Poverty level/low-income Arizonans are more likely to feel the seriousness of behavioral health issues more than any other income group. They are less likely to feel their medical provider is easy to understand/ communicates well with them. They are more likely to be insured through Medicare, Medicaid or have no insurance. Even households with between $25K and $35K annual income are in a different healthcare position than those with <$25K income. The focal point for healthcare in a healthy community needs to factor in solutions especially for these Arizonans.

• After high healthcare costs, inadequate coverage and poor patient care were listed as top concerns, both at around 9% to 10%. • Those not having any healthcare concerns were mentioned by 21% of the Arizonans responding to the survey. Those feeling this way were consistent across income, ethnicity and geographic groups.

3. Hispanics are affected more than non-Hispanics regarding the seriousness of some behavioral health issues (e.g. obesity). In addition, they also seem to be more negatively affected on healthcare cost-related problems. This appears to be another warning sign needing to be addressed to build the health of the communities; that is, to meet Hispanics’ healthcare needs.

Thanks to Hospice of the Valley’s palliative home care program, Mary has the 24/7 support she needs to continue to live independently— and her children have peace of mind, knowing their mom is not alone. Mary’s first experience with the not-for-profit agency was very personal, when her husband died 11 years ago. When Mary had a recent bout with lupus, her dialysis center suggested she consider more intensive care. There was only one choice for her: “I want to get palliative care and I’m going with Hospice of the Valley. I’m very picky about that.” That’s because Hospice of the Valley’s palliative care addresses the physical, emotional, social and spiritual needs of patients with serious illness, but not ready for hospice. Working with patients’ physicians, the program helps patients like Mary navigate the system, explore options and chart the best course for them.

HOSPICE OF THE VALLEY’S HISPANIC OUTREACH TEAM FOCUSES ON IMPROVED PATIENT CARE To meet the unique needs of the community, Hospice of the Valley has a dedicated Hispanic Outreach Team to provide culturally sensitive care to Spanish-speaking patients and families. To ensure there is no language barrier, our bilingual staff—doctors, nurses, social workers, chaplains, counselors—provide direct patient care and bereavement services in the language families feel most comfortable speaking. Mary has bonded quickly with Marcela Vazquez-Bowler, a Hospice of the Valley social worker. A native from Argentina, Marcela visits Mary to monitor her condition, provide resources and assist with important healthcare decisions. During their visits, as Marcela works with Mary on her care needs and medical planning, they chat about Mary’s art, travels and determination to treasure every moment. Mary says Marcela has empowered her as a patient. “She just listened to me. And she opened my son’s eyes," Mary says.

Hospice of the Valley’s palliative care program also works with hospitals and health plans to help patients successfully transition back to their home following a hospitalization. Patients may receive palliative care at home while receiving other medical treatments. Medicare and most health insurance plans do not pay for palliative home care services. Donations allow Hospice of the Valley to provide this special type of care to nearly 4,500 patients — helping those with life-limiting illnesses manage their symptoms and live comfortably at home.

ARIZONA FOUNDATION FOR WOMEN PRESENTS: The 2020 Status of Women in Arizona Research Report

Featuring a research article on the gender wage gap by Alika Kumar, Executive Director, Phoenix MBDA Business Center operated by the AZ Hispanic Chamber of Commerce.

In her research chapter, Kumar provides eye-opening data on the persistent economic impacts of gender and race-based wage disparities: • • •

Arizona women employed full-time lose a combined total of nearly $13 billion each year due to wage gap. In a lifetime, an Arizona working woman loses an average of $735,000 in earnings. More than 307,000 Arizona families are headed by women, of which 31% have incomes below poverty levels.

She explains the legal, structural and societal barriers that impede a woman’s ability to equally and fairly participate fully in the economy. To read Kumar’s complete analysis, keep an eye out for the full Status of Women in Arizona research report release in early 2020. This report will highlight the status of women in Arizona with respect to safety, health and economic independence including key metrics and featured articles by subject matters experts.

• ELDERLY (AGES 65+) HISPANICS ARE FIVE TIMES MORE LIKELY TO USE PUBLIC TRANSIT THAN THEIR NON-HISPANIC COUNTERPARTS BECAUSE ELDERLY HISPANICS ARE TWICE AS LIKELY TO LIVE IN URBAN AREAS WITH RAIL THAN THEIR NON-HISPANIC COUNTERPARTS. • THE LARGER METROPOLITAN AREAS TEND TO HAVE MORE TRANSIT AND PEDESTRIAN OPTIONS, WHICH LEADS TO HIGHER RATES OF WALKING AND TRANSIT USE BY HISPANICS. —NATIONAL HOUSEHOLD TRAVEL

PROFILE

PLANNING FOR ARIZONA’S TRANSPORTATION FUTURE BY SUSANA MARTINEZ The Maricopa Association of Governments (MAG) is the long-range regional planning agency for the metropolitan Phoenix area. MAG comprises 27 cities and towns, three Native nations, Maricopa County and a portion of Pinal County. Founded in 1967, MAG’s member agencies come together to address issues of regional significance and work collaboratively to identify mutually beneficial solutions.

How will we continue to invest in one of the fastest growing regions in the country? In the spring of 2019, we heard from more than 9,200 people who said they love their communities and the transportation investments that connect them to where they need and want to go. You told us you value these transportation investments because they provide choice, mobility and connectivity. With the region expected to grow to 6.67 million people by the year 2050, bridging our communities will continue to be of upmost importance. It will take our entire region to continue to build upon our existing transportation systems to improve public transportation, increase safety and reliability and provide equal access to healthy destinations.

In addition to other work, MAG is responsible for facilitating transportation planning for the region and identifying transportation solutions and strategies that will support the economic vitality of the region and more effectively get people and goods from here to there.

MAKE A DIFFERENCE In collaboration with organizations such as the Arizona Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, MAG wants to learn more about your transportation needs and ideas. With the development of the next 20-year transportation plan right around the corner, now is a great time to join the effort. It is everyone’s responsibility to work to make a difference and positively enhance our region for generations to come.

WHAT MOVES YOU? In 1985, Maricopa County voters overwhelming passed Proposition 300, a 20-year, half-cent sales tax to build the regional freeway system the region relies on today. That same sales tax was extended for another 20 years in 2004, through a ballot initiative known as Proposition 400. Voters endorsed continued expansion of the freeway network, investment in regional transit and street improvements. Propositions 300 and 400 have played a large role in shaping our region and fueling our economy. A primary focus of MAG is the development of the next Regional Transportation Plan, Imagine and the associated planning for the next generation of transportation investments beyond Dec. 31, 2025, when the current tax expires.

FACT SHEET

The State of Latino Transportation Where you live is linked to how healthy you are. Sadly, U.S. Latino communities are marked by transportation inequities, including unsafe streets, unstable walking and biking environments, and public transit that can be hard to access, unaffordable, and unreliable. This limits Latinos’ access to health-promoting assets─affordable housing, green spaces and physical activity, healthy food, medical care, good schools─and makes it harder for Latino families to lead healthy lives. But there’s good news. Policymakers and community leaders can promote public participation in adopting policies to invest in or improve public transit and transit-oriented development. This can increase opportunities for health equity among Latinos. This Fact Sheet is part of the Salud America! “The State of Latino Housing, Transportation, and Green Space: A Research Review.” Read the full Review with citations: salud.to/healthequity.

The Evidence: Latinos Face Transportation Inequities Where you live, and your access to equitable transportation, impacts your health. •

People who live in walkable, bikable, transit-oriented communities are more physically active, have less weight gain, have lower rates of traffic injuries and fatalities, have higher rates of employment, and are less exposed to air pollution, studies show.

Latino often lack access to equitable transportation. •

As low-wage workers are being “priced out” from living in city centers, U.S. Latinos are living farther from transportation hubs, amenities, jobs, and green spaces.

Low-wage jobs often employing low-income Latinos—landscaping, cleaning, and child care—are frequently located in suburbs where Latinos do not commonly reside; this “spatial mismatch” makes it hard for public transit to provide sufficient service to pair employees and employers. Latinos are more likely than any other group to live in a multigenerational household with young and/or aging family members who can’t drive themselves to school, work, healthcare, etc.

Latinos are less likely to have a personal vehicle, which causes inequities. • •

More U.S. Latinos (12%) that White households (6.5%) do not have access to a car. In the Bay Area of California, 15% of low-income Latinos had access to a car every day of the week, and 16% had access 1-6 days of the week. The remaining 69% had no access.

Many reported the cost of car ownership and repairs resulted in foregoing the purchase of other necessities, including food and healthcare.

Latinos are more likely than their peers to depend on public transit or other drivers to get to jobs, doctor appointments, etc., all while facing unreliable rides and longer commutes. •

• •

Among urban residents, 27% of Latinos use public transit daily or weekly, compared to 14% of non-Latino Whites. Foreign-born urban residents are more likely to regularly use public transportation than are native-born urban dwellers (38% vs 18%). Latinos without cars often reported another person’s car as their primary mode of transport. In Springfield, Mass., 25% of Latinos report another person’s car as their primary means of transit, often bargaining goods, services, or money for rides from neighbors, relatives, and friends, according to a survey. Most participants reported being late to work and appointments because of these unstable arrangements, and agreed with the statement, “if public transportation was better, I would drive and/or be driven less.” When Latinos had the option to drive or get a ride, they take it over public transit due to limited access to jobs or unpleasant or unsafe experiences on public transit, according to two studies. Latinos spend 26.9 minutes on average to commute to work, a longer time than their White peers (25.1 minutes), according to national data.

Latinos face cost and reliability challenges using public transit, which impacts health. • •

For a trip that takes 20 minutes by car, some people reported leaving up to two hours early to be sure they arrived to work on time, due to unreliability of mass transit, according to a study. Others reported that many transit routes: o were suspended without notice; o did not get them where they needed to go (to the daycare to pick up their kids, to suburban office parks or industrial complexes for their jobs, etc.); o did not run at the needed times (after hours for community college night classes, etc.); o ran only once per hour or less; and o endangered their safety (in the context of crime reduction near public transit and pedestrian and bicyclist injury, etc.). For the lowest-income transit riders, balancing a household budget with transit costs can add significant stress and reduce spending on food, education, and healthcare.

Efforts to improve transportation inequities face many barriers. • • •

Environmental, economic, and social equity goals often compete for attention from policymakers in transportation-planning decision making. The current environment of tight city budgets limits agencies’ ability to expand services and enhance connections between jobs and households. Often, transportation planning decisions at all levels place a stronger focus on reducing traffic congestion than improving equity.

Several studies indicate Latinos desire public investment in safe sidewalks to normalize walking, and greenways as safe routes to school and safe routes to public transportation, which contribute to social cohesion in neighborhoods.

Fear of displacement, gentrification, and loss of culture is real and has often delayed sustainable transport projects in Latino communities.

The Evidence: Effective Ways to Boost Transportation Equity Cities and transportation authorities are using these methods to make public transportation more accessible, affordable, and reliable to improve Latino quality of life.

Establish frequent public transit routes with after-hours service where the highest proportions of low-income individuals reside. o Minneapolis City Council passed a capital spending resolution for street maintenance and safety improvements with a mandate to advance equity; 40% of projects funded through 2022 are in areas of concentrated poverty, which account for 23% of city streets. Perform community surveys and spatial analyses to establish public transport routes to shorten commutes between neighborhoods and jobs for low-income Latinos. o In San Francisco, to prevent and mitigate displacement in the Bay Area, the Metropolitan Transportation Commission commissioned researchers at UC Berkeley to develop the “Regional Early Warning System for Displacement.” Assess transport affordability for low-income groups and establish reasonable prices as a percent of monthly income. Establish transit fare payment options that spread periodic lump-sum costs over time, and conversion of daily payments into monthly passes. o In the Alameda-Contra Costa transit district in California, cash fares automatically convert into day passes when using a regional Clipper fare card. Day passes then automatically convert into monthly passes, which saves users money in the long run and, for lowincome riders, eliminates the need to pay for a monthly pass up front. Increase public awareness of public and nonprofit transportation cost-assistance programs (and spread information in English and Spanish in grocery stores, schools, and ads). o Planning for Minnesota’s Gold Line Bus Rapid Transit lanes include materials in Spanish. Support the informal transportation networks that exist in low-income communities, such as carpooling organized by employers. o For workers at Virginia Hospital Center in Arlington, heat map technology called Modeify plans optimal commutes in hopes of saving people time and money─while increasing use of multimodal transportation options that are good for health and the environment. Consider public input on transportation improvement initiatives. o During the 2018 midterm election, U.S. voters passed 80% of public transportation ballot measures. For example, Broward County, Florida, voters approved a 1-cent sales tax increase for 30 years to pay for electric buses, light rail, bike lanes, sidewalks, etc.

Latino community engagement can spur transportation improvements. •

Forms of engagement that have proven successful in Latino communities include: use of “cultural brokers” that connect grassroots advocates and governance groups to ensure community needs are met; ongoing meetings at a regular time and place; distributing informational flyers; door-todoor engagement; making presentations at churches, small businesses or other communitybased institutions; training on specific issues of interest; and social media engagement. In the Figueroa district of Los Angeles, Nancy Ibrahim, who worked as a “cultural broker” for local residents, said the 8-lane Figueroa Street corridor was zoned and developed for “affluent, transient students” to drive through in their cars, not for the families who live nearby and get around “by public transportation, by bicycle and by foot.” Ibrahim helped push a plan through city council to dedicate three of Figueroa’s eight traffic lanes for protected bike lanes, bump-out bus platforms, and a dedicated bus lane, the idea of which stemmed from a community open house in which residents asked the city to dramatically improve local transit, biking, and walking accessibility. Two powerful local Latino business people joined over 60 locals, mobilized by the Los Angeles County Bicycle Coalition, to testify at city council to support the plan. As Ibrahim said: “It is so important that community residents have a say … the new Figueroa is putting in a new level of accessibility and connectivity to working folks, including working poor folks, who contribute profoundly to what’s best about this neighborhood.” The Ticket to Opportunity initiative, organized by IndyCAN, a multiracial, nonpartisan organization in central Indiana, sought to mitigate the effects of inadequate transit as a barrier to employment opportunities. The campaign aimed to pass a regional transit expansion referendum to triple bus service in Indianapolis, fuel economic development, and increase job access threefold for lowincome communities. Importantly, Ticket to Opportunity created dialogue with 80,000

marginalized voters of color and partnered them with faith-based organizations, businesses, government, and community leaders to build sustained capacity for achieving transit equity.

Latinos benefit from transport-oriented development in their neighborhoods that increases affordable housing near public transport. •

Transit-oriented development is a model for neighborhood revitalization that is “walkable, dense, compact, mixed-use development in close proximity to high-quality transit” with these goals: o Increase “location efficiency” so people can walk, bike, and then take public transit; o Boost transit ridership and minimize traffic; o Provide a rich mix of housing, shopping, and transportation choices; o Generate revenue for the public and private sectors and provide value for both new and existing residents; and o Create a sense of place. Making neighborhoods connected with complete sidewalks for transportation and social interaction, and limiting vacant space, are important neighborhood characteristics to Latinos.

Policy and Practice Implications Ensure public transport routes in all communities are accessible, sufficient, reliable, provide transport outside of regular work hours, and access locations where Latinos work, such as suburban office parks and industrial centers: • • • • • • •

Increase the number of transit routes and frequency of routes where the highest proportions of low-income individuals reside. Invest in late-night transit service. Conduct community surveys and spatial analyses to establish public transport routes to shorten commutes between neighborhoods and jobs for low-income Latinos. Determine true transport affordability for low-income Latinos by region and establish reasonable prices as a percent of monthly income. Provide payment options that spread periodic lump-sum costs over time. Increase public awareness of transportation cost assistance offered by both public agencies and nonprofit organizations. Provide better support for the informal transportation networks that exist in Latino communities.

To address the transportation needs of Latino families: • • • •

Construct affordable housing close to public transportation, ideally through transport-oriented development projects that limit displacement in Latino neighborhoods. Strive to provide complete streets with walkable sidewalks, full shoulders, protected bike lanes, transit access, and interconnected networks to be used for transport and for social cohesion. Increase access to non-street dependent forms of transport, such as greenways and trails. These could be used as safe routes to school and as safe routes to work and/or public transport. When developing sustainable transportation and transit-oriented development, solicit community feedback to gain resident support to limit fear of displacement and gentrification. o Employ use of a “cultural broker,” a local resident with access to community members, grassroots groups, and official decision-makers, and who can mediate agreements and ensure community needs are met and development occurs within neighborhood context. o Bring residents together with ongoing, regular meetings at churches, community centers, or prominent local businesses. o Distribute flyers and hold trainings to educate the community on specific issues of interest such as transportation options, tenant rights, affordable housing in the area, etc.

PLAY BALL BY JERRY ROMO

OVERVIEW In 2019, the Arizona Diamondbacks Foundation and Insight launched the immersive D-backs Girls Play Ball Program that empowers girls and young women to get involved in baseball. Recognizing that young girls and young women are a priority within the community, the classroom and on the playing field, the program allows new generations of girls to experience the many benefits of sports participation: increased confidence, improved health and enhanced academic success. Girls Play Ball is based on growing evidence that women and girls who play sports are increasingly likely to excel on both the playing field and in life. Studies have shown that girls who play sports have the ability to concentrate much better, have a higher self-esteem, make healthier decisions and have reduced anxiety and depression. By the age of 14, girls are dropping out of sports at two times the rate of boys. Based on research, girls need sports. A combination of learning baseball skills, with team-building exercises and healthy activities, the program was built to include important topics such as anti-bullying, body image, body changes, decision making, healthy active lifestyles, stereotypes, media, personal hygiene, self-esteem, peer pressure and female empowerment. For the first year in existence, girls served in this program were in grades four through nine. The participants in the program are selected from a first-come, first-serve application process and include girls from the Boys & Girls Clubs, Girl Scouts and Little Leagues across the state. With more than half of Arizona’s children in low-income households, the D-backs want girls to have equal opportunity to play the game. The D-backs support the girls in the program by providing each

PL AY BALL participant with a baseball glove, hat, t-shirt, drawstring bag and game tickets. The Girls Play Ball Program exists as a three-part program–baseball skills clinic, STEM camp and a celebratory D-backs game. What makes this initiative so unique is how the D-backs pulled together female leaders, volunteers and local high school and college softball players to create a positive environment for the girls. From May through September, each girl attended one of the following events: • A baseball skills clinic hosted by the D-backs Academy coaching staff, including female coaches, to develop a connection to the sport and have a long-lasting, positive impact. • A STEM camp to translate the love of baseball into an appreciation, understanding and passion for the science and mathematics underlying the sport. Girls will be recognized on-field before a D-backs game and each participant will participate in an on-field parade around the warning track. All participants will receive game tickets. These girls demonstrate an ability to achieve exceptional success and receive a certificate to commemorate their achievements.

UNA VIDA TRANSFRONTERIZA BY ARISBETH VALENZUELA Borders are not limited to physical structures or barriers, but rather include educational, social and economic ones. Education, a means to intergenerational mobility disguised as the American Dream, is what enables many Latinx to cross the US/ Mexican border on a daily basis.

Columbia, Garcia, knew he wanted more. He wanted to diversify and broaden his capacity. The end goal was always in sight for Garcia: “I wanted to own my own company, be my own boss.”

Arturo Garcia, 27, is a prime example of someone whose parents saw the academic imbalances between the two educational systems. The lack of intellectual stimulation that Arturo experienced pushed his parents to do what many border town residents know as a way of life.

Much of Garcia's academic journey was due to the sacrifices he made while crossing the border early in his life. Not only was he back in the community where his family lived, but this time he was determined to give back to a community that has given so much to him.

Being a part of a mixed status family is what led Arturo to live the transfronterizo student experience. His father, a US resident, migrated with his family to San Luis Rio Colorado, MX, from Culiacan, Sinaloa, MX. The border region allowed his father access to the agricultural sector as a means of socio-economic stability while also being able to come back to his family at the end of the day.

Yuma and San Luis have plenty of students who have considerable untapped potential and talent, but coming from communities where microaggressions, a lack of support or the knowledge to navigate academic institutions impede many students from replicating Arturo’s success.

When searching for opportunities that would help Garcia reach his goal, the city of Yuma recognized his potential. He quickly climbed the corporate ladder within 18 months and became a project manager, something that would take others years to accomplish. It seemed as if everything has come full circle.

Since his return, Garcia has become a prominent figure within the community and helps to show other students that there is hope. Arturo has trained schools and academic advisors at his old high school on how to help students understand the application process and what it takes to become college bound.

From a young age, being transfronterizos became a norm for Garcia and his household. Between the ages of 12 and 16, Garcia joined his father and began to cross the border into Arizona on a daily basis. Living among a community who shared the same cultural values while simultaneously receiving an education in a place where life was completely different attributed to the expansion of Garcia's cultural capital, which further enabled him to navigate both sides of the border.

Academics aren't the only thing he has sought to improve. Garcia recognized how the infrastructure in Yuma and San Luis could improve drastically and, with his degree in civil engineering, he has begun to make changes to improve the way of life for his hometown’s residents.

Garcia's academic journey was not reflective of the cultural or linguistic barriers between him and his counterparts, but rather it was based upon his high aptitude for mathematics. Exposure to both sides of the border made him realize that education was not based upon pleasure, but rather survival.

Garcia 's experience in engineering in big cities has allowed him to return to his hometown with a more holistic mentality, which will help San Luis in the future reach its full potential. In his new company, Garcia began using as laser scanning and drones, which might not make sense to some people, but this technology is slowly allowing San Luis to catch up to cities like New York and Chicago.

Ivy league institutions are often described as inaccessible for students like Garcia, but as someone who valued and embodied academic excellence, he knew he could succeed and compete in these spaces. Being a first-generation immigrant and student, he recognized the privilege that many others obtained, but he knew that he was competing with intellect, not material items.

Garcia recognizes he is not the only product of San Luis with a success story, but rather he is one of many who are slowly improving his hometown. Garcia saw it as his responsibility to return and work within the community to make these changes.

Duke University and Columbia University molded his vision and future career goals. With a degree in civil and architectural engineering from Duke and a master’s degree in civil engineering with a concentration in construction engineering and management from

His current objective is to build low-income housing that will be more accessible to community members. He has many other goals for the future and growth in San Luis will continue with Garcia constantly bringing new initiatives to the area. 239

SOCIAL/CULTURAL COHESION

PROFILE

IT’S MORE THAN CHILD’S PLAY BY JAMES GARCIA During the past 40 years, Childsplay Theatre Co. has built a national reputation for creating and staging groundbreaking children’s theater. The award-winning Tempe-based company mounts performances for more than 250,000 children annually. Childsplay’s season typically features six major productions a year at the Herberger Theater Center in downtown Phoenix and hundreds more shows at schools, libraries and other venues in the state and across the country. Despite its success, the nonprofit company has been stepping up its efforts to address the striking disparity between the makeup of audiences that traditionally attend live theater and the nation’s increasingly diverse communities. In Arizona, for instance, the Latino population has more than tripled from about 700,000 to more than 2.3 million since 1990. Nearly 50 percent of the students enrolled in the state’s K-12 schools are Hispanic. In Phoenix, people of color are now a majority of the city’s fast-growing population and experts say minorities could outnumber whites statewide by the end of the next generation. Acutely aware of the major cultural and demographic shifts underway, Jenny Millinger, who leads new play development at Childsplay, says the company is working hard to ensure that the stories it puts onstage reflect the changing face of the wider community. “It’s so critical that we tell the stories, all the stories, of the young people in our audiences,” Millinger says. Millinger noted that of the five new works Childsplay has in various stages of development, four are Latinx-themed. All of the plays are expected to hit the stage in the next three years.

For its 2018‒2019 season, Childsplay partnered with the Black Theater Troupe to stage And In This Corner: Cassius Clay, The Making of Muhammad Ali, a play about the famed boxer’s early life...in the segregated South of the 1950s.” For its 2019‒2020 season, the company is staging a new work called Chato’s Kitchen, which is based on a book by Gary Soto. Childsplay has also commissioned an original work it is currently workshopping by Miriam Gonzales called Selena Maria Sings, which is slated to premiere in the 2020‒2021 season.

I T’S MORE THAN CHILD’S PL AY Valdez came to the Valley several times to workshop the new script and present a “staged reading” of the play for a group of local schoolchildren. Valdez had not read Soto’s book before he was asked to adapt it as a play, but said he found himself drawn to the project by the story’s humor and cultural authenticity.

Chato’s Kitchen is about two cats–gatos–named Chato and Novio Boy. The cats are Mexican American (aka Chicano) and live in an East Los Angeles barrio. The plot revolves around Chato’s love of cooking and whether the cats can resist the urge to eat a family of mice who’ve just moved in next door. But the play’s bigger message is about learning to respect and appreciate the value of diversity–and, yes–why it’s wrong to eat your neighbors.

we do that,” says Hartford, who is also a playwright and director. “We want to be respectful partners in our community. But a big part of that is finally acknowledging what traditional Euro-based theater companies have failed to understand: that we need to speak to all children of all races, backgrounds, genders and identities.”

Valdez applauds Childsplay for its dedication to making new works, especially theater aimed at Latinos and other communities of color.

Childsplay has a history of staging new works that challenge convention. The Yellow Boat, written by David Saar, Childsplay’s founding artistic director, is based on the story of David and Sonja Saar's son, Benjamin, who was born with congenital hemophilia. Benjamin died when he was eight from AIDS-related complications. He had contracted the virus that causes AIDS from a blood transfusion.

“It’s really smart for their own survival and the survival of the field in general,” he says. “The demographics are changing.”

Producing diverse new works is core to Childsplay’s mission, says Hartford. “It’s the right thing to do because we are of this community and we have a moral obligation to be a mirror to that community.”

Osiris Cuen, now an actor in Chicago, saw her first play–a production of Lion King at Gammage Auditorium on the campus of Arizona State University–as a high school student. Cuen grew up telling her mother, even as a small child, that she planned to be an actor someday. Cuen went on to teach and perform for Childsplay and even got to perform at her former elementary school in Phoenix.

Creating new plays for children is also important because attracting young children to the theater helps build audiences for the industry long term, Valdez says.

Hartford says Childsplay will keep testing the norms of “theater for young audiences,'' as it’s known in the industry, adding that he looks forward to one day having the company stage a play inspired by the LGBTQ community.

Millinger says it was Cuen who brought Chato’s Kitchen to the company’s attention.

California-based playwright Mark Valdez is a fan of Childsplay’s approach to theater. Renowned in his field, Valdez was commissioned to write and direct the stage adaptation of Chato’s Kitchen, which is his first play for children.

Cuen recommended that Childsplay adapt Soto’s book into two playscripts, one in English and one in Spanish. The theater company eventually settled on a version it will be staging in “Spanglish,”

Committed to promoting professional theater around the world, TCG will host its annual convention, an event that draws between 800 and 1,000 people, in Phoenix in June 2020. The commitment to create new works is not just about “looking toward the future, but also recognizing current inequities and lack of representation,” says Eyring, who used to run Children's Theatre Company in Minneapolis. Children’s Theatre was the first company to stage the work of famed playwright Larissa FastHorse.

Eyring adds that while some theater companies have been slower to respond to the growth of communities of color, “change is definitely happening. Companies that have traditionally been white-led and have had mainly white audiences, [are now expected] to be inclusive.”

BREAKING STEREOTYPES BY SUSANA MARTINEZ From an early age, Alexis Hermosillo was determined to break stereotypes and continue her mission of bettering her community. Her work within Arizona’s Congressional District 3, her success in building community support for multimodal transportation and tireless efforts to empower other young Hispanic professionals throughout the United States have been key milestones in her journey. Using the knowledge she gained in her experiences and through her education, she knew there was so much more she could contribute to the place she has always called home.

knew she had a fighting chance because of her deep understanding of the yearning for change filling the El Mirage electorate. In November of 2018, to the surprise of many, Alexis was elected Mayor of El Mirage. A true believer in education, Alexis is fulfilling her Mayoral duties while pursuing her doctoral degree. “What moves me is making a difference in people’s lives and in my community. I want to show the youth the importance of education and in believing in yourself.” Since taking office earlier this year, Mayor Hermosillo has earned a reputation for working with her counterparts and regional agencies to improve processes and eliminate obstacles to progress. Her competitive advantage of thoroughly knowing regional organizations and crucial members within those organizations has led her in the right direction. “Pivoting from candidate to mayor makes you take a step back and acknowledge the challenges of the position – but also that those challenges are outweighed by the reward of making things better for people. Collaboration is very important within this role. I want to ensure I work collaboratively within our region.”

As a fourth generation Hispanic in El Mirage, she knew exactly what the City was capable of, if she was willing to fight for it. In 2018 the City of El Mirage had a fierce Mayoral contest for its next elected leader. The incumbent, Mayor Lana Mook, had served two terms on City Council and had well-established roots in the Valley. However, having lived her life not only in the Valley but in El Mirage, Alexis

SOCIAL JUSTICE Background on Complaints Process

Complaint Categories

An efficient and responsive complaints process is a critical component to ensure professionalism within law enforcement. In Our Values on the Line, a 2015 report, the Kino Border Initiative (KBI) and the Jesuit Conference found through survey data that one in three migrants apprehended while crossing the desert reported suffering an abuse by Border Patrol. However, fewer than one out of every 12 who suffered an abuse filed or attempted to file a complaint. The most commonly reported reason for not filing a complaint was that migrants were unaware of that right; the second most common reason was the perception that the complaints would not make a difference.

Complaints were filed in response to incidents reported by individuals deported to Nogales, Sonora, and only in situations where individuals gave free and full consent. They are not representative of the entirety of alleged abuses, since many individuals were still fearful of retribution. They include:

In response to these findings, in the late fall of 2015, KBI began helping migrants use the Department of Homeland Security complaints process. From late October 2015 to early March 2017, KBI has filed complaints on behalf of 49 individuals in response to a variety of abuses, from excessive use of force to lack of medical attention and denial of the right to seek asylum. This work has given KBI firsthand experience with improvements and ongoing obstacles in the process.

• •

Ten complaints on excessive use of force, primarily related to the time of apprehension, two of which specifically addressed injuries from canines; Twenty-two complaints regarding the failure of Customs and Border Protections officers or agents to refer individuals expressing fear to the asylum process; Ten complaints on separation of individuals from immediate family members; Twelve complaints on denial of medical care or inadequate medical care while individuals were in Customs and Border Protection custody; Six complaints of violations of the October 2015 Transport, Escort, Detention, Search (TEDS) standards, including illegal searches and use of restraints on a minor; Three complaints of failure to return belongings, one of which involved suspected robbery in the field by a Border Patrol agent; Two complaints of verbal abuse, both of which were reported by women.

MIGRANT TESTIMONIES Injury without Recourse In November 2015, Ernesto, age 21, and his 16-year-old brother were arriving at a roadway when Border Patrol agents arrived and they initially attempted to run. An agent caught up with Ernesto and pushed him into barbed wire. He no longer attempted to move or flee, but according to Ernesto the Border Patrol agent grabbed his shirt collar, dragged, and started to punch him, saying “can’t you see this is U.S. territory?” The agent hit Ernesto until he started to bleed and then dragged him again, handcuffed him, and brought him to the truck, while cursing at him in English. Ernesto was later brought to the hospital, and the agent who drove him to the hospital informed him of his right to file a complaint. When he returned to the Border Patrol Station, he asked to file a complaint but the agents there said it would not have any effect because his injuries were not severe enough. When he and his brother were deported to Nogales, Sonora, the Kino Border Initiative filed a complaint on his behalf. From November 2015 to the present, the only information that KBI has received is a notification that the complaint was sent to the Joint Intake Center and a June 2016 letter from the Department of Homeland Security’s Office of Civil Rights and Civil Liberties informing KBI that the complaint was included in the information layer.

SOCIAL JUSTICE Role of Different Agencies and Gaps in Oversight Three departments are tasked with oversight and investigation of complaints: Civil Rights and Civil Liberties (CRCL), responsible for identifying patterns of abuse and making policy recommendations; the Office of Professional Responsibility, responsible for integrity and management; and the Office of the Inspector General, which assumes cases that could lead to more severe discipline or criminal charges. The Joint Intake Center is used to aggregate complaints and each of the three departments can see complaints in that system. In KBI’s experience, there are several shortfalls in this system. First, most complaints submitted by KBI are not investigated by any of the three departments tasked with oversight, but rather are addressed at the station level. This includes serious complaints, such as individuals removed despite expressing fear. This is a fundamental flaw in a centralized system intended to provide oversight. While the Joint Intake Center aggregates complaints, it does not identify patterns of abuse at a particular Border Patrol Station or regarding a particular abuse category in order for these concerns to be addressed. Further, the Office of Professional Responsibility does not train station-level management nor oversee their investigations unless the station requests support. This analysis and feedback on recurring concerns could and should be used to improve training and professionalism because abuses are a question of not just individual agent discipline but also overall law enforcement effectiveness. An additional concern is regarding submitted complaints not being accounted for in broader investigations. At the request of NGOs, in the past year CRCL has initiated investigations into family separation and removal of individuals who express fear. At the beginning of the family separation investigation, however, CRCL did not seem to have the relevant KBI complaints in that classification and KBI had to resubmit the documentation. Further investigation of the CRCL keywords abuse classification system is needed to ensure that individual complaints are clearly incorporated into broader investigations of policy and practice.

MIGRANT TESTIMONIES Pregnant and Ignored Ignacia was eight months pregnant when she entered the United States near Douglas, Arizona, on December 1, 2015. She had been walking a few hours when she fell in the desert and sprained her ankle. She continued to attempt to walk in spite of the pain and was apprehended by Border Patrol agents that same evening. When apprehended, she informed the agents that she was pregnant. However, upon arrival at the Douglas Border Patrol Station she was not given any medical attention for either her pregnancy or her sprained ankle. She was only given seemingly undercooked burritos and crackers to eat approximately every six hours. This food was insufficient to stave off her hunger because of her pregnancy. She requested additional food but the Border Patrol agents did not provide her with more meals or snacks. She also asked to speak with the Mexican consulate but was not given an opportunity. She was deported on December 3, 2015, and arrived in Nogales still in pain from her injured ankle. KBI filed a complaint on behalf of Ignacia on December 7. In January 2016, the local station found it to be unsubstantiated. According to the Douglas Border Patrol station manager, he spoke with the agents who had contact with Ignacia and they said that she did not request medical attention, they did not notice that she was pregnant, and that she did not request additional food. As far as KBI is aware, no other entity of DHS investigated the complaint.

Finally, the local Office of the Inspector General (OIG) has been responsive to cases when KBI reaches out directly, but it is unclear whether all information submitted through the Customs and Border Protection (CBP) online complaints system or CRCL is reviewed by OIG absent more proactive NGO follow up.

Communication on Complaint Status Over the course of 16 months filing complaints, KBI noted improved timeliness in confirming receipt of complaints. However, there is still little information on the conclusions of investigations

SOCIAL JUSTICE and a lack of independent evidence to allow for thorough complaint investigations. Out of 49 complaints, KBI was notified about the findings of the complaint investigation of only 13 cases. The results of the 13 cases about which KBI received notification were the following: • • •

In two cases, Civil Rights and Civil Liberties (CRCL) responded with their findings. In 11 cases the response came directly from local station management. Two complaints were found to be substantiated and disciplinary action was reportedly taken, though for reasons of agent privacy more details were not available. Five of those unsubstantiated pertained to individuals who had claimed to state a fear of return and were closed based on the agents’ response that they do not remember hearing such a statement. In these cases, there was no known supplementary evidence beyond the agents’ testimony, such as audio recordings of the conversation. Three complaints were found to be unsubstantiated based on documented evidence, such as station logs and medical reports. However, this documentation can be incomplete and inconsistent with migrants’

concerns. For example, in one case a woman who was eight months pregnant at the time of detention complained of inadequate medical attention. The station logs apparently had no record of her pregnancy. For three complaints, it is unclear what evidence was used in the investigation process.

For the remaining 36 cases, KBI has received communication only to confirm that the complaint has been received, will be or has been investigated, and/or has been included in the Civil Rights and Civil Liberties information layer. While communication on individual complaints is often lacking, KBI does commend CRCL for their quarterly meetings with NGOs to hear concerns and give updates. KBI is also encouraged by the responsiveness of the Arizona Office of Professional Responsibility and Office of the Inspector General to NGO conversation.

Accessibility of Complaint Process The CBP Info Center is the online portal and complaint management system used by CBP (https://help.cbp.gov/app/forms/complaint).

MIGRANT TESTIMONIES Deported Back to Persecution Leonardo and Marcos fled Nueva Italia, Michoacán, Mexico, to escape cartel recruitment. Their cousin had just been killed for refusing to comply with the cartel’s demands. They entered the U.S. near Douglas, Arizona, and had been walking for four days in the desert when Border Patrol agents approached and detained them on Saturday, April 23, 2016, at 2 a.m. At the time of their apprehension, Leonardo asked one agent about whether they could get asylum since they were fleeing persecution. Reportedly, the agent responded, “No, here we can’t give you that. They used to give asylum because Michoacán was bad but not anymore.” Agents brought the twins initially to the Douglas Border Patrol Station and then to the Tucson Border Patrol Station. Leonardo asked the agent who interviewed him at the Tucson Station about the possibility of asylum, because of the persecution they were fleeing, and the agent responded “asylum has ended.” After their interviews, the agent asked them to sign about 10 different pieces of paper. The agent did not explain the contents of the paperwork and just said “sign, sign” very quickly. Leonardo and Marcos were then deported to Nogales around 4 p.m. on Sunday, April 24. KBI filed a complaint on their behalf on April 26, 2016. In July 2016, the Douglas Border Patrol Station found the complaint to be unsubstantiated. Officer Roman, the station supervisor, said in a call with KBI’s advocacy director, Joanna Williams, that station management asked all of the agents involved to submit memos about the incident and none of them reported recalling the brothers asking for asylum. As far as the KBI is aware, no other entity of DHS investigated the complaint.

SOCIAL JUSTICE It continues to improve in user-friendliness and is a useful tool, especially for NGOs who assist individuals in filing complaints. KBI also commends CBP for adding the Spanish-language complaints interface to the website, which has allowed KBI to train partner organizations in Mexico and Central America on how to access the complaints process. However, individuals without access to the Internet and without the support of NGOs face more limited complaint options. A centralized, multilingual hotline is still a critical missing piece, and individuals still lack access to phones and information on how to file a complaint while in CBP holding cells.

CRCL has also on occasion informed KBI that investigations cannot proceed because complaints were submitted without Alien Registration Numbers. Most individuals removed by Border Patrol arrive to the KBI aid center without removal paperwork and do not know or have documentation of their A Number. Further steps must be taken to ensure individuals who are deported are issued their removal documents and that the complaint investigation can advance in absence of an A Number.

- Have all of your belongings, including money and identification, been returned to you? - Were you apprehended with family members? If so, have you received information about where your family member is and how/when you may be reunited? - Have you received information about how to file a complaint? - Do you wish to file a complaint now about your treatment or conditions while in CBP custody?

Recommendations •

Increase funding to the CBP Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR) to double their staff of investigative agents. With that increased funding, OPR should directly investigate all complaints against CBP agents or officers. Short of that, OPR must be responsible for training and oversight of station management complaint investigations. Audio record interactions between CBP officers and agents and individuals in their custody and equip all CBP officers and agents in the field with body-worn cameras to enhance the available evidence for complaints investigations. Data should be preserved with appropriate privacy protections. CBP should employ a clear and transparent process for determining what footage is archived. Such a process should ensure that video of potential abuses is saved and is made accessible to individuals who wish to file a complaint about their treatment by agents.

Establish a complaint hotline modeled after the ICE ERO Community and Detainee Helpline, which should be available at all CBP detention facilities and posted on Border Patrol vehicles and at ports of entry, in multilingual format and free of charge. Increase transparency of complaint and investigation process. The release of Office of Professional Responsibility aggregated data on investigations and discipline in FY2015 was an important step forward, and OPR should quickly release FY2016 data with further explanations of complaint categories, intake points, and the investigation processes. Integrate DHS databases to ensure that different oversight entities can easily identify individuals filing complaints and the agents or officers on duty at the time of the incident. Implement exit interviews. Upon release from CBP custody, and after individuals have an opportunity to receive and review their belongings, all persons should receive an administrative exit interview with translation as necessary, which includes the following questions:

CBP should keep a record of each individual’s answers to these questions and take appropriate action to locate belongings or give information on family members if the individual indicates that these requirements have not been met.

PROFILE

SOCIAL JUSTICE

GIVING ARIZONA CITIZENS A VOICE BY TARA JACKSON Arizona Town Hall serves as a forum for constructive conversation that builds bridges, creates solutions to difficult issues and develops civic leaders. It is a private, nonprofit, civic organization created in 1962 to establish, through research and discussion, an ever-growing body of Arizonans not only well informed on the critical issues facing the state, but also skilled in the process of thoughtful analysis and consensus building.

A town hall report validates critical issues that must be addressed and offers fact-based solutions. A final town hall report serves as a “shovel-ready” solution for Arizona’s leaders.

“FUTURE LEADERS TOWN HALLS GIVE YOUNG PEOPLE AN OPPORTUNITY TO BECOME MORE KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT CRUCIAL ISSUES AFFECTING OUR STATE AND THE ABILITY TO HAVE THEIR VOICES HEARD.”

—LINDA ELLIOTT-NELSON, VICE PRESIDENT FOR LEARNING SERVICES, ARIZONA WESTERN COLLEGE, YUMA.

Arizona Town Hall brings together people with diverse occupations and perspectives to address topics of major concern that will affect Arizona’s future. Arizona Town Hall holds Community Town Halls, Future Leaders Town Halls and Community Outreach Programs throughout the state. The group also offers consulting services and training sessions for those interested in the process. The organization has served as a catalyst for discussions and recommendations that have influenced significant changes in Arizona’s public policy over the years. It has been cited by countless local, state and national leaders as a significant factor in educating people about the multiple facets of complex issues while fostering the development of both personal and professional leadership skills.

“[TOWN HALL PROGRAMS PROVIDE AN] OPPORTUNITY TO LISTEN, EXPAND AWARENESS, BUILD RESPECT FOR OTHERS’ LIFE EXPERIENCES AND LEARN ABOUT HOW TO BUILD BRIDGES AND CREATE SUSTAINABLE CHANGE.”

As a neutral facilitator, Arizona Town Hall is neither a lobbying nor an implementation organization. Town hall participants and members, however, are encouraged to engage in follow-up activities to execute town hall recommendations.

—MARY MITCHELL, CRISIS SPECIALIST, LA FRONTERA EMPACT

The opportunities Arizona Town Hall provides to discuss controversial topics in a civil manner has fostered a heightened level of understanding and responsibility among the people of Arizona. While no one person or organization can claim total responsibility for political change, Arizona Town Hall helps facilitate informed conversations and consensus on many issues of major importance to Arizona’s future.

ARIZONA’S CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM BY TARA JACKSON

STATE PRISON SYSTEM There were 42,073 prisoners in the state prison system as of November 2017, including both state-run and private prisons. Of this total, 33,763 are housed in 10 facilities owned and operated by the state of Arizona, with 8,310 incarcerated in private prisons operating under state contract.

African Americans also have a disproportionate number of adults in Arizona prisons. (Figure 2).

Despite the broad range of backgrounds, perspectives and locations, certain themes resonated across all the sessions. In essence, participants determined that communities would be safer and stronger if they were “smart on crime” instead of “tough on crime.”

Participants outlined a series of recommendations. They include the expansion of diversion programs, revising sentencing guidelines, increased training for police and first responders, treatment for mental illness and substance abuse, programs to reduce recidivism and many more. Participants also committed to take specific actions to create change.

The demographics of those in prison are different from those of the state as a whole. While 60 percent of the state’s population over age 18 is white, just 39 percent of those in state prisons are white. Conversely, 39 percent of Arizona’s prison population is Latino even though the state’s overall adult Latino population is at 27 percent.

Majority-Minority Counties in 2024 “Minority” groups represent the majority of the population in more than 400 U.S. counties in 2019, including most of the highly populated areas of the nation.

“Minority” groups will represent the majority of the population in 420 U.S. counties in 2024, including most of the highly populated areas of the nation.

Furthermore, where they live today may not be where they will live tomorrow and understanding the growth & migration trends where multicultural groups live are key to targeting them now and in the future.

By 2024, the top 10 U.S. counties will all have majority multicultural population over

1 million

including Los Angeles (8 million-75.5%), Miami (2.7 million-89.3%) and Dallas (2.2 million-76.4%).

Geoscape Acculturation CultureCode® provide geo-demographic, economic and behavioral segmentation through an analytical framework expressed as data on people, households, media and shopping patterns. CultureCode® consumer segmentation such as “Hispanicity” for the Hispanic/Latino population and “Asianicity”, which represents a related segmentation system for the dynamic Asian-American consumer allow us to dimensionalize segments by country-of-origin, life stage, socioeconomic strata and a variety of shopping and media behavior metrics. The result is an unprecedented level of detail that enables marketers to understand the dynamics of the diverse American consumer.
