La periodista Claudia Amaro creó una guía con más de 50 recursos para residentes latinos bilingües en Kansas que no sabían por dónde empezar ni si los servicios estaban en español. Un ejemplo de cómo el periodismo puede ser un recurso real para la comunidad. #Kansas #Periodismo

¿Qué pasa cuando el periodismo escucha? En el sur y oeste de Chicago, residentes compartieron lo que necesitan: parques más seguros y espacios deportivos bajo techo. Reportó para @SouthSideWeekly por @JewlJackson1, becaria 2025 de Altavoz Lab. #PeriodismoComunitario #Chicago

Journalist Claudia Amaro created a 50+ resource guide by listening to bilingual Latino residents in Kansas, many of whom didn’t know where to start, if IDs were required, or if services were available in Spanish. A powerful example of journalism as a real community resource.

What happens when journalists simply listen? In Chicago’s South & West Sides, residents shared what their neighborhoods need, safer parks & more indoor sports spaces. Reporting for @SouthSideWeekly, by @JewlJackson1, 2025 fellow at Altavoz Lab. #CommunityJournalism #Chicago
