Episode 96 is a Spanish episode.

Jean Carlos Rivera, a systems engineer by day, is also serving as Executive Director of Diaspora X Puerto Rico (DXPR), a volunteer-led group of four who are doing all they can to help newly arrived Puerto Ricans in the United States.

Junto a ellos, y como parte de la Coalición del Bronx apoyando a los damnificados del Huracán María, estamos trabajando juntos y organizando una feria de recursos a darse el próximo sábado 24 de marzo en el gimnasio de Eugenio María de Hostos Community College en el Bronx, Nueva York.

Cientos de familias puertorriqueñas están en limbo aquí en Nueva York. Los casos de muchas de estas familias se han estancado en burocracia. DXPR es una de las organizaciones que trabaja buscando e identificando servicios y vias de consejería y conectar a estas familias con los mismos.

Alongside them, and as part of The Bronx Coalition Supporting Hurricane Maria Evacuees, we are working together and organizing a resource fair taking place next Saturday, March 24, at the Eugenio Maria de Hostos Community College in the Bronx.

Hundreds of families are in limbo here in New York. Many of the cases have stalled in the system. DXPR is one of the organizations working to find and identify proper guidance channels and other services and connect these families with them.

Good people. Gente buena. Write to me for more info.
