By Desert Star Staff RANCHO MIRAGE, Calif. – Sunnylands Center & Gardens is opening its 9-acre art garden to the public as a venue for peaceful walks and the exploration of desert plants.

The gardens and their 1.5 miles of walking trails will be available free of charge from 7:30 a.m. to 12:30

p.m., Wednesday through Sunday. Until further notice, the public will not have access to Sunnylands’ interior spaces, including the Center and the historic Annenberg home.

Tours of the estate and public programmings, such as Yoga and Tai Chi on the Great Lawn, are currently on hold.

The reopening of the

gardens marks the first time that the public will have access to Sunnylands since California officials issued stay-at-home orders in response to the coronavirus pandemic in midMarch. While restrictions for some businesses eased around Memorial Day, Sunnylands remained closed, adhering to its routine of

using the summer months to prepare for a new season beginning in mid-September.

This year, Sunnylands is planning a gradual reopening of its facilities, starting with the gardens only. Currently, Riverside County has not met the state criteria to allow museums to open their interior spaces. Sunnylands

is revamping its operations and retrofitting the Center to qualify for social distancing when indoor visits and house tours resume.

Sunnylands requires guests to wear face masks that cover the nose and mouth and to maintain a 6-foot distance from

6 ways to find nature in and around L.A.

By Pam Price LA’s balmy weather is the envy of almost any city. Still, the tangle of freeways, traffic congestion, and general hassle of driving (and hunt for parking) almost everywhere can take their toll. Fortunately, there are plenty of beautiful natural escapes away from the urban fray. Here are five ways to find nature in and around the City of Angels—no passport required!

The famous Los Angeles Zoo is owned by the city of Los Angeles and has had many improvements and eco-savvy additions over the years, like the Campo Gorilla Reserve and Rainforest of the Americas.

The 133-acre zoo is located

behind the Hollywood sign at the edge of Griffith Park, which itself covers more than 4,300 acres. And yes, the zoo is open! Visit lazoo.org for details The 21-mile coastal strip of Malibu was once just an unincorporated part of Los Angeles County, but today is a city in its own right, though a small one with a population hovering around 13,000. The big draw in Malibu is, of course, the beach, or more accurately beaches, which parallel the Pacific Coast Highway from Santa Monica to Point Mugu, across the Ventura County line. While some beaches are

5 Seasonal DIY Home Improvement Projects

By Desert Star Staff The calendar pages may be turning fast, but it’s not too late to do some work around the house. Now is the time to wrap up home improvement projects before the weather turns too cold.

Consider these five easy DIY tasks that can set you up for a warm, safe and pest-free fall: Perform routine HVAC maintenance. Heating and cooling systems need regular

With the breaker and gas off, wipe the exterior of your furnace with a damp rag then remove the access door and vacuum the burners, base and blower compartment.

Wipe away imperfections and let sit 10-15 minutes until it’s no longer tacky. Gently press the expanded foam into the gap using a putty knife.

Check for damage to hardscaping. Walkways, patios and decks are all susceptible to wear that can lead to tripping hazards or allow rain, snow and ice to seep in and create larger problems.

Also pay attention to other elements like paint that may require periodic updates to maintain its protective function.

Eliminate entry points for pests. When temperatures start dropping, you’re likely to see some movement with creatures who want to enjoy the comfort of your home. Make it clear they’re not welcome by sealing up places they may be creeping in.

of economic data will impact the market somehow. For example, the reports of unemployment, gross domestic product, inflation, housing costs, or interest rates. As an advisor, you must be able to have a “Feeling” about the country’s future and political changes and understanding how each condition will alter a market outcome. To help others in financial matters, It is essential to perceive future outcomes. Similar market conditions naturally produce identical results.

Many people do not realize that the biggest driver of the market is the Emotional indicators. In my opinion, this is one of the Weights and Balances… because if

emotional indicators show positive, the markets do well, and while a Negative indicator can create a “Sell off” and a market slide.

Currently, the emotional hands stand in a sideway position, meaning the market is flat.

As the stock market rallied nearly 40% from the March 23 lows, after falling in sync after the February-March market sell-off. These three indicators have since surfaced. The most observed indicators are the CitiPanic/Euphoria Model, the CNN Fear and Greed Indicator, and the B of A Bull/ Bear indicator, which currently indicates that investors are too bearish on stocks. This creates a contrarian buy signal. While the CNN Fear &

Greed Index has been stuck in neutral territory for a month.

It signifies that investors are undecided on stocks right now. This does not generate a contrarian trade signal.

Below is a chart demonstrating the emotional sentiment of the public to buy or sell.

Lastly, the Citi Panic/ Euphoria Model is now generating a reading of “euphoria” after rallying from a “panic” reading in April.

This signifies that investors are bullish on stocks right now and generates a contrarian sell signal.

When taken together, the three divergent readings in the sentiment indicators signal that investors have no conviction in where the stock market goes from here.

Investors seem baffled by the fact that the stock market has rallied so much in the face of bad news and devastating economic numbers caused by the coronavirus pandemic.

Sadly, more than 40 million Americans have filed for unemployment. Still, it is amazing how over the past 10 weeks, the market rallied on 9 out of the 10 days when the unemployment data was released.

And today, to the surprise of many, the stock market is up despite violent protests and

riots over the weekend that spread to large cities around the world in the aftermath of the death of George Floyd.

Investors have little conviction in where it goes from here. Many have made fortunes in down markets, but most people have teams of people to analyze all aspects of the market.

If you are a contrarian, like me, You may fear another meltdown. It is time to stay Safe as we move into a new world with all new dynamics, but remember to check the emotional indicators to understand where society is leaning.

Can Non-Residents Run? Why Can’t Spouses of Directors?

By Kelly G. Richardson, Esq. CCAL Mr. Richardson: Can a nonresident owner be on the board? A board member moved but still stayed on the board while he rented his unit.

Several homeowners opposed, but the manager said it’s a new law that just came in effect, however our bylaws state that board members need to be resident owners.

What would be correct bylaws, CC&Rs, or this new law? Is there a new law?

Thank You, L.S., Anaheim

Dear L.S.: Yes, there a new law is in effect this year. Civil Code section 5105 contains new board eligibility standards. HOAs can adopt four optional eligibility standards – candidates can be required to be owner for at least a year before running, to not have a co-owner already on the board, to not be delinquent in their assessments and to not have been convicted of a felony which could affect the HOA’s dishonesty insurance.

It is unclear if these optional eligibility standards are the ONLY eligibility requirements HOAs can adopt. Most lawyers are taking the conservative interpretation, that these

four are the only optional standards -and residency is not among that list.

I think HOAs should be able to adopt their own eligibility standards, but this is now the law. Best regards, Kelly Dear Kelly: One of our directors has been on the board for a long time. A few years ago, a director resigned and the board voted the director’s wife as a board member. They have both been re-elected to the board.

I have no objection to either of them being on the board as they are nice well-intentioned people. There is nothing in our CC&R‘s that prohibits this.

It just seems like one home should not have two votes on the board. Any comment?

R.L., Newport Beach.

Dear R.L.: Civil Code section 5105(c)(2) allows HOAs to bar co-owners of a current director to run for the board. This is not an automatic

eligibility requirement, as the HOA must amend its rules or bylaws to elect this standard.

Even before this law took effect, I have long thought that spouses should not serve simultaneously on the board – it gives one membership two board votes. Thanks, Kelly

Mr. Richardson: It is my understanding that under the new law spouses of members not listed on the title are now not eligible to be on the board. What is the rationale behind this change?

There are valid reasons for having only one spouse on the title. Those spouses may be better qualified, have more relative experience and knowledge and be more interested in serving on boards than the listed member. This is especially a problem in smaller HOAs where it is often difficult to find good board members. E.M., Oceanside Dear E.M.: Only HOA

members can run for the board, pursuant to Civil Code section 5105(b). This is the one eligibility requirement which is now automatic. When I draft updated bylaws, I normally define “member” as an owner of record, as sometimes a spouse or other person will claim they are an owner due to community property or other undocumented interest. The clearest path to eligibility is to have a recorded grant deed showing that one is listed as an owner.

1 in 3 Americans Worry About Job Security This Labor Day

By Desert Star Staff With Labor Day approaching and the unemployment rate at 10.2%, WalletHub today released a nationally representative Coronavirus & Labor Day Survey, which found that 1 in 3 Americans worry about job security. Below are highlights of the survey, along with a WalletHub Q&A.

job security this Labor Day. For the complete survey results, visit: https://wallethub.com/ blog/coronavirus-andlabor-day-survey/78578/ Do Americans think that the temporary extra benefits offered to unemployed people should be extended?

“The vast majority of Americans, at 74 percent, think that Congress should extend the extra unemployment benefits until the pandemic is over,” said Jill Gonzalez, WalletHub analyst. “Opinions differ across income brackets, as 83 percent of low-income Americans are in favor of an extension of extra benefits until the end of the pandemic, compared to 63 percent of high-income Americans.

Deadlock in Congress, combined with legislators’ summer recess, may lead to a long period of time without a long-term solution for the unemployed.”

Are people optimistic

that others will practice social distancing during Labor Day celebrations?

“Most Americans, at 77 percent, do not trust others to be responsible about social distancing this Labor Day,” said Jill Gonzalez, WalletHub analyst. “Adults under 30 years old are more than twice as likely as those aged 59+ to trust that others will practice social distancing.

This makes sense considering the fact that the elderly are more vulnerable to serious

symptoms from COVID-19 and thus must practice an especially high level of caution.”

During the COVID-19 pandemic, are Americans working harder than usual?

“Half of Americans say they have worked harder since the COVID-19 pandemic began,” said Jill Gonzalez, WalletHub analyst. “Middle-class Americans were the most likely to say they have worked harder, followed by high-income and then low-income Americans.”

Are Americans worried

about their job security this Labor Day? “About 1 in 3 Americans worry about their job security, which makes sense considering the extremely high rate of unemployment in the U.S. right now,” said Jill Gonzalez, WalletHub analyst. “Women are less likely than men to be concerned about job security, even though recent data shows that women are losing their jobs at a greater rate than men during the COVID-19 pandemic.”

Historic John Glenn Nasa Space Launch Movie “Hidden Figures”

Taraji P. Henson and Janelle Monáe

By Jack Lyons Theatre and Film Critic Member American Theatre Critics Association Member Academy of Television Arts and Sciences The 2017 sleeper hit movie “Hidden Figures” began its worldwide $ 326 million dollar box-office bonanza with the relatively small budget of $ 50 million dollars. Those kind of figures (no pun intended) put a wide smile on the faces of 20th Century Fox executives when all was said and done.

The story and cast responsible for its wide appeal put smiles, as well, on the faces of its stars: Taraji P. Henson, Octavia Spencer, Janelle Monae, Kevin Costner, Jim Parsons, Mahershala Ali, Kirsten Dunst, and Glen Powell as John Glenn. It proved once again that creative quality films, intelligently written by talented writers, sensitively played, in this case, by an inspired cast all under the insightful, smart direction of Theodore Melfi, can indeed entertain audiences worldwide without a single F-bomb being uttered.

Set in 1961 “Hidden Figures”, centers around the true and factual story of three brilliant African-American female mathematicians who worked at the Langley Research Center in Hampton, Virginia, during

America’s odious Jim Crow Law era - from 1887 to 1964. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 finally nullified the repellent secondclass distinction Jim Crow law, by recognizing that all citizens of America are to be accorded full and equal protection under the law authorized by the US Constitution.

There have been many bodies lost on the barricades over the centuries. However, it took the courage of AfricanAmerican woman Rosa Parks who refused to give up her seat on a public bus to a white passenger that set in motion the ‘freedom’ movement which requested that all racial discrimination and segregation laws be declared unconstitutional.

The “Hidden Figures” screenplay written by Allison Schroeder and Theodore Melfi is based on the eponymous non-fiction book

by Marge Lee Shetterly which scrupulously followed the key NASA events in her well documented book. Some critics of the movie however, felt that technically speaking, screenwriter Schroeder and director/co-screenwriter Melfi injected a character or two which altered somewhat the dramatic intention of the book Ms. Shetterly authored.

However, she, didn’t find that to be an issue in the movie.

Melfi and Schroeder

Taraji P. Henson and Kevin Costner countered that the character of Al Harrison the chief project engineer as played by Kevin Costner, was a composite character of several NASA managers. Harrison is grumpy at times, consumed and focused to the project at hand is charged with the important and critical assignment of getting astronaut John Glenn to orbit the earth several times and then bring him safely back to earth to tell us what he saw. Yes. That’s an ulcer-producing assignment and it’s all true; based on facts.

Harrison was a constant gum-chewer, no doubt to calm his nerves, and was a NASA manager who didn’t suffer fools easily. His frustrations over having to play catch-up with Russia’s space program success of sending a man into space, albeit, sub-orbital effort earlier, is what drove the American space program.

Director Melfi ignored his critics knowing a government project like space travel required the coordinated efforts of thousands of highly skilled employees, so compressing the timelines, and the number actors required to produce what the scientists and engineers did for rapt audiences and the government, was definitely worth the effort.

Above all, he had to produce a very compelling movie that involved three AfricanAmerican families and how they each fit into this terrifically entertaining movie story puzzle.

In a side bar regarding

filmmaking for or about a government entity: I wrote, produced, and directed industrial and marketing films for five years often armwrestling with the client as what to keep or remove; to listening to ‘that’s not exactly how we do this or that’. Once my script was approved to go, I’m the person accountable for the end product not the client. So, I can empathize, in a small way with Mr. Melfi’s plight. And, the beat goes on…. But I digress.

The technical aspects of space travel is a bit old hat now, but some 60 years ago it was mind-boggling stuff.

Compelling stories with issues that confronted everyday life, however, are still the best sources for making movies.

It’s still the best way to watch talented actors do their thing for audiences, except here they’re doing it in front of camera.

“Hidden Figures” is blessed with a terrific cast led by Tariji P. Henson as Katherine Johnson, a young widow with three young daughters to raise. She is mathematical whiz in quantum geometry and possesses a mastery of numbers bordering on genius and works in the NASA East computer division, with her two friends Mary Jackson (Janelle Monae) an aspiring engineering candidate, and Octavia Spencer as Dorothy Vaughan, who runs the East Building Computing department as its temporary Supervisor, but is waiting for her promotion to full Supervisor.

of color in this NASA facility located in the East Wing of the complexes of offices.

Solid support comes from Kirsten Dunst as Vivian, the white supervisor of the all colored computing department employees. Jim Parsons as Paul Stafford, lead engineer and assistant to Costner’s Al Harrison has the unfortunate bad luck to play the film’s antagonist toward Ms. Henson’s quiet, gracious and gentle, Katherine. Both actors deliver nicely nuanced performances. Mahershala Ali as dignified Colonel Jim Johnson, of the National Guard becomes the love interest to Katherine’ shy demeanor. Glen Powell portrays a winning John Glenn.

The beauty of “Hidden Figures” lies in the power of its poignant and inspirational script performed by a fabulous ensemble cast. There are three Academy Award winners up on the screen of your computers to appreciate: Costner, Spencer, and Mahershala Ali. We’re all stuck at home riding out this pandemic, so streaming services and platforms are your options at the moment.

Check your TV listings to see when “Hidden Figures” will be streaming or screening in your area again. I viewed it on the FX channel last week. If you’ve seen it before, see it again. It’s definitely worth a second look.

Suspected Portland shooter called himself ‘100% Antifa

By Desert Star Staff The man’s identity under investigation for the shooting death of a Donald Trump supporter in Portland, Oregon, has been revealed. He is reportedly an ex-military Black Lives Matter supporter who calls himself “100% Antifa.”

Though he has not been formally named by police, the Oregonian is reporting that Michael Forest Reinoehl, 48, is under investigation for the death of Aaron ‘Jay’ Donielson, a member of the right-wing Patriot Prayer group who was shot and killed during clashing protests in Portland on Saturday.

Reinoehl’s sister was interviewed by the paper and confirmed that the suspected shooter’s screenshots were of her brother, who has been estranged from most of his family.

The distinctive mark that confirmed his identity to family members is a tattoo on his raised fist’s neck.

“We reached out to police and confirmed that we recognized Michael in the screenshots,” the sister, whom the paper did not identify by name, said.

She condemned the shooting and warned it is not “the solution” to

“Violence begets Violence and hatred begets hatred.

This is not the solution.

My heart goes out to the victim. It always has, before I even knew my brother was involved,” she said.

Reinoehl’s social media posts include him calling himself “100% Antifa” and talking about a coming “war” in America that will consist of “casualties.”

“It will be a war, and like all wars, there will be casualties,” he wrote. He called those protesting across the nation in cities like Portland and Kenosha, his “brothers in arms.”

Reinoehl has a criminal history, including charges stemming from a July 5 protest for carrying a loaded weapon, resisting arrest, and interfering with police. Reinoehl was supposed to appear in court on July 30 to face the charges, but he was released, and the charges were never pursued.

The Multnomah County District Attorney’s office is currently reviewing the case.

The suspected shooter had also been charged for allegedly racing his 17-yearold son and driving 111mph (178kph) and carrying a loaded Glock pistol he did

not have a concealed carry permit for a while transporting his 11-year-old daughter.

He was charged with driving under the influence, recklessly endangering another, driving while suspended and uninsured, and unlawful possession of a gun for that incident. There is a warrant out for his arrest.

Reinoehl’s social media posts have gotten particular attention as both Democrats and Republicans have attempted to pin the blame for the shooting, and other

Violence at protests on one another, with both #BidenRiots and #TrumpRiots trending on Twitter following the incident in Portland, which stemmed from Black Lives Matter and Antifa protesters clashing with a vehicle caravan of pro-Trump supporters.

“Joe Biden has refused to say a single negative word about Antifa and the media has spent the last 3 months defending them. Why is that?”

Donald Trump Jr. tweeted on Monday, along with a link identifying Reinoehl.

Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler, who has opposed the National Guard’s help to help control increasingly violent protests in his city, blamed President Donald Trump on Sunday for helping to encourage Violence with his rhetoric.

The president responded by blasting Wheeler as a fool and warned that the federal government will intervene if Portland’s mayor cannot “clean” his city.

them to be an “upstander,” not just a bystander. This involves being an ally who stands up to bullies, and it can be as simple as seeking help from an adult, or as ambitious as starting an anti-bullying program at school.

• It can be disheartening to learn that your own child has engaged in bullying. Remember, bullying is a behavior, and behaviors can be changed.

Help your child identify underlying feelings that may be causing them to act out in this way and encourage them to find positive outlets such as sports, art or journaling.

• It’s important for kids to understand that the goal of bullying is to make the victim feel scared or powerless.

Parents can equip children with the knowledge, resources and confidence they need to feel empowered in the face of

bullying, as well as with tools that align with this cause. By the end of 2020, the Erase Bullying for Good campaign, through purchases of Pilot’s FriXion Erasable pens, will have contributed more than $450,000 to organizations committed to bringing bullying prevention and education programs to US schools. FriXion’s unique, thermo-sensitive erasable ink writes smoothly and erases cleanly, so students, teachers and parents can write, create and express themselves fearlessly without the stress of written mistakes, empowering them to be upstanders through the written word.

Bullying is all too common.

However, parents can play an active role in helping put a stop to it this back-to-school season and beyond. StatePoint

Tips to Help Erase Bullying This Back-to-School Season

By Desert Star Staff This back-to-school season may look a little different, but no matter what learning environment kids find themselves in this fall, bullying is a real cause for concern.

One in five kids aged 12 to 18 has encountered bullying, according to StopBullying. gov. It can happen in person, online or even by text. In an effort to combat the problem, Pilot Pen launched the Erase Bullying for Good campaign in 2015 to help support bullying prevention programs in schools nationwide. For a smooth start to the school year, they are offering parents these back-to

school tips for facing the issue: • Sometimes kids hesitate to share negative situations they’re encountering. That doesn’t mean they aren’t showing signs that something is wrong. Pay attention to sudden changes in mood, sleep patterns, study habits or other signs of stress.

Let kids know that if they’re bullied or witness bullying, it’s okay to come to you or another trusted adult, like a teacher, counselor or coach. A strong trust network helps kids feel safe and empowered.

• If your child is being bullied, reassure them that they’re not alone and have done nothing wrong. Let them

know you’ll work through this together. Follow up with school officials to ensure the negative behavior is being addressed, especially if your child is being physically bullied or feels like they’re in danger.

• The presence of digital devices and broad reach of social media means more avenues for bullies to reach their targets. Maintain an open dialogue with your child regarding online activity, and don’t be shy about keeping an eye on profiles and posts.

• Being the target of bullying can feel isolating and overwhelming. If your child witnesses bullying, encourage September 2, 2020

Malina Moye, in the new music video “Enough”

So I am encouraging everyone to celebrate who you are right now in this moment—not who you’re trying to be, but exactly who you are now. You are enough.

By Desert Star Staff LOS ANGELES, CA, USA, -- Everywhere she goes, and on every stage, she plays, Malina Moye is recognized as one of her generation’s top guitarists. With a witting disregard for genre restriction, this modern-day six-string champion shatters the boundaries between rock, funk, soul, and pop. Bad As I Wanna Be, her third and latest set, topped the Billboard charts for two consecutive weeks and drew rave reviews from music press and fans alike. Penning all of the songs herself, she deftly flexes her musical storytelling, yet keeps radio-friendly appeal throughout. Moye then throws in a handful of soul-

grabbing guitar solos as her signature added seasoning, and her fans wouldn’t have it any other way.

“Enough” is a statement of self-affirmation, and every note Moye plays from a colorful downtown Los Angeles rooftop supports its central message; “I am enough, you are enough, we are enough.” And in the video, she challenges us to come to the same conclusion about ourselves. Taking this cue, director Marc Fusco turns the camera on pedestrians of all walks of life to paint a broad, inclusive picture of society.

“Diversity is really the soul of the video,” states filmmaker Fusco. “Malina’s lyrics speak about our dreams and hopes

of what we want for our lives, but also come to terms with the DNA of America and the healing that it needs to do.”

Fueled by a groundswell of celebrity voices on social media, Moye’s #IAMENOUGH campaign has seen a powerful resurgence in the last few months, topping over four million impressions globally. “‘I am young, I am black, I am a woman, and I am somebody’ is what kept going through my mind while I was writing ‘Enough,’” declares Moye. “So I am encouraging everyone to celebrate who you are right now in this moment—not who you’re trying to be, but exactly who you are now. You are enough.”

need to be paying out the benefits at the highest level.”

Opponents of taxing the rich say tax increases would cause high-income families to flee the state.

AB 1253 would increase taxes by 1% on income over $1 million a year, and AB 2088 would add a .04% tax on personal wealth for couples making more than $30 million a year.

The bills’ supporters vow to try the next session again.

Instead, state leaders call

on the U.S. Senate to pass another stimulus bill with billions of federal dollars to plug holes in state budgets.

But Christopher Calhoun, communications coordinator for the Service Employees International Union-California, said he isn’t optimistic because Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has criticized the idea of helping the states.

“We’re relying, as a blue state with cleareyed leadership, on Mitch McConnell and Donald Trump

to come to our rescue, and I cannot believe that that’s our strategy,” Calhoun said.

The coalition known as Commit to Equity holds its “Countdown to Catastrophe” vigil at the State Capitol this evening at 8:00 p.m. and said they’ll press for a special session in the fall to deal with the fiscal cliff.

The coalition includes groups focused on health care, environmental justice, education, immigrants, labor, poverty, etc.

Legislature Set to Adjourn without Voting on Wealth-Tax Proposals

By Desert Star Staff SACRAMENTO, Calif.

-- The California Legislature is expected to adjourn tonight without voting on bills to raise taxes on the wealthy, disappointing advocates who had hoped to avoid massive budget cuts.

By law, California cannot run a deficit, so billions in cuts to state services and agencies may be triggered this fall and next year without new revenues.

Mike Herald, director of

policy advocacy for the Western Center on Law and Poverty, said the bills would have raised an estimated $23 billion, funds he said are needed to prevent widespread suffering, on top of the chaos already wrought by the pandemic.

“These matters would prevent devastating cuts to things like the K-12 system, to child care, Medi-Cal benefits, in-home supportive services, welfare,” Herald said. “Recessions often cause us to cut when we probably

Student Parents Juggle Childcare, Studies as School Year Begins

By Desert Star Staff Student parents have some major considerations as the new school year begins.

From closed childcare centers, to nationwide computer shortages and

limited broadband access in some areas, the pandemic has exacerbated the challenges.

Cristina Guajardo is a resident at the Jeremiah Program in Austin, which provides lower-income single

moms with safe and affordable housing and childcare.

With her two-year-old son’s daycare closed, she’s a full-time parent taking online classes at Texas State University, and her senior year just started.

“I’m not fully present with my classes, I’m not fully present for him,” Guajardo said. “And it’s just a matter of trying to juggle it all. And at the end of the day, I’m exhausted.”

But Guajardo hopes she’s setting a good example for her son, for resiliency and how to overcome obstacles in difficult times. About one in four Texas undergraduates is also a parent.

Student parents, especially single mothers and Black parents, tend to have more student debt and less financial security than their peers who don’t have children.

Marisa Phillips, executive director of Buckner Children and Family Services in Lufkin, said there are support gaps that institutions aren’t filling, or even aware of.

“It is rare at this point that schools even track or know exactly how many of their students are parenting students,” Phillips said.

Phillips added more

campuses are bringing on designated staff to help support student parents with their financial and childcare plans, textbook loans, and other needs. But it’s a work in progress.

Childcare centers on college campuses have been gradually closing over the last decade.

With so many families together at home, Guajardo noted more people now understand the challenges of working and watching the kids simultaneously.

“You know, before, that was something that maybe people weren’t aware of,” Guajardo said. “But for a lot of moms in poverty, and a lot of single moms in particular, that’s our reality. That’s our every day.”

She hopes the programs will lead to better quality and more affordable childcare options, beyond the pandemic.
