Join MILPA and Tia Martinez from Organizing Roots to learn about the impacts of the school-to-prison pipeline and current state and local suspension rates.
Background & Purpose:
Over the past few months, a group of parents, youth, community members, and organizations in Watsonville have joined forces to advocate for and defend the current Ethnic Studies program at PVUSD. MILPA, which has been supporting these efforts, is also looking to broaden the conversation to include the larger issue of the school-to-prison pipeline and examine the latest suspension data for the state and PVUSD. By working together to strengthen community organizing and build a solid foundation, we hope to continue making progress toward a more equitable and healthy community. There will be time to be in community, share food, and receive other information about events happening throughout the community,
