SB 1233 Would Require State to Translate Initiative Materials

California Senate Approves Language Access for Ballot Measures SACRAMENTO

The California Senate took a major step toward involving the 6.9 million Californians, who don’t speak English very well, in the ballot initiative system, passing SB 1233 by a vote of 24 to 14, with two abstentions. The bill would require the state to translate ballot initiative materials being circulated for signature-gathering into widely-spoken languages.

“This bill is an important step to protect the rights of all of California’s voters by providing election materials in different languages,” said bill author Sen. Alex Padilla (D-Pacoima). “By failing to provide language appropriate petitions, thousands of voters have been, and continue to be, left out of the process of deter-

mining which initiatives qualify for the ballot. It is imperative that we provide initiative material in all the languages covered by the 1965 Federal Voting Rights Act,” said Senator Padilla.

Under the Federal Voting Rights Act of 1965, which outlawed discrimination in voting, California is required to translate voting materials such as a sample ballots and voter information pamphlets into nine languages, including Spanish, Chinese, Vietnamese, Korean, Tagalog, Hindi, Khmer, and Thai. However, ballot initiative and referendum petitions circulated in hopes of qualifying for the ballot are not covered by current law, although the initiative process has become increasingly important in setting policy in California.

The Greenlining Institute brought the issue to Senator Padilla earlier this year, after completing a statewide listening tour to hear from California voters about their experiences with the initiative process.

“We kept hearing about how voters were being misled and excluded by the initiative process because petitions are only available in English,” said Michelle Romero, Greenlining’s Our Democracy program manager. “By passing SB 1233, we can uphold the rights of millions of citizens to participate in our democracy and help determine what goes on the ballot.”

Having passed the Senate, SB 1233 now goes to the Assembly.

Reconocimiento de Dolores Huerta con la Medalla Presidencial por la Libertad Hilda L. Solís La Secretaria de Trabajo

Recuerdo durante mi infancia en La Puente, California haber estado cautivada por las imagines de Dolores Huerta. Recuerdo su imagen en los periódicos deteniendo un cartelón con las letras HUELGA; y en la televisión, cuando estaba atrás del Presidente Robert F. Kennedy segundos antes de que fuera asesinado.

Ella estaba tan linda, su cabello sedoso, sus ojos brillaban, y su voz delicada pero conmovedora y con un mensaje fuerte. Pero, ella era aún más bella por dentro. Ella dedicaba su vida a ayudar a la gente. Su pasión era y sigue siendo la justicia. Por más de medio siglo,

ha dedicado su tiempo en ayudar a los hombres y las mujeres que trabajan en los campos de Estados Unidos.

Yo no se si Dolores me inspiró a servirle al público, pero sé que insistió y me inspiró por hacer lo mejor posible en mi trabajo. Nos conocimos durante los años 90s, cuando yo trabajaba en la legislatura de California.

El Presidente Obama brindo honores a Dolores Huerta a nivel nacional con la Medalla Presidencial por la Libertad por dedicar toda su vida luchando por los derechos laborales y la justicia social. Ella se une a varios luminarios de la historia quienes han recibido este honor de alto rango, como Cesar Chávez, el Dr. Martin Luther King.

A los 82 años, Dolores Huerta continúa ayudando a la gente por medio de la fundación que lleva su nombre. Allí reúne a la comunidad de bajos recursos del Valle Central de San Joaquín para ayudarles a recibir mejor acceso al sistema educativo, salud médico, préstamos justos y un medio ambiente más limpio. Su pasión por la justicia ha crecido. Ella lucha por la igualdad femenina, los derechos reproductivos y temas relacionados con la orientación sexual. Sus ojos radiantes y voz preciosa continúan inspirando a gente en todo el país y a través del mundo, así como llego ha inspirar a una jovencita de La Puente, quien llegó a ser la primer mujer Latina dentro de un gabinete presidencial.

Chicano Community Vivienda, discriminación e historia Advocates Are Essential

Several happenings during the past years reveal a need for more Chicano community advocacy. While we have many Chicano individuals who are very involved community activists, there is a need for an advocate who can speak for all of us when appropriate.

Recently, SJSU President Mohammed Qayoumi had a meeting with several Hispanic community leaders. During this meeting all were informed that academic entry requirements for SJSU would be raised beginning with September 2013. During this meeting it became obvious that an inadequate number of focus group meetings with the local Hispanic community had happened. Of the several community activists who were there, no one person could speak with the support of all the others present. The outcome was that ‘market forces’ would determine how many local youth get into SJSU in the future. In the past, the East Side Community youth could depend upon being accepted into SJSU with a “C” high school academic performance. That is no longer the case. Two outcomes can be projected: a) an estimated 1,400 Latino students will not be admitted by SJSU as in the past.

And b) Latino students must be taught to be ‘competitive’ by local schools.

What happened at MACSA (Mexican American Community Services Agency) where two executives were recently convicted of wrongfully transferring funds from a retirement fund into the current MACSA operations fund? That action was done in order to support current operations. The two executives involved never benefitted personally. Nonetheless, it was wrong to use monies which were already encumbered for one purpose (future retirement payments)

appropriate

to another operational need.

One of the local nonprofit organizations, the NLPOA (National Latino Peace Officers Association) had $100,000 wrongfully taken by two members of their leadership. Both individuals were ‘trusted’ officials of NLPOA who were later subjected to very public court proceedings.

The damage to the public good will, and integrity of NLPOA, cannot be measured except by the reality that not many events today are sponsored by NLPOA. The local San Jose American GI Forum organization is still trying to recover from the bankruptcy loss of its facility valued at $8.4 million. This facility was enabled by many volunteers who contributed their time, skills and materials. This outcome was the result of faulty communications and operational mismanagement. The lack of oversight by board members who had fiduciary responsibility resulted in complicity.

These four examples (and more exist) are evidence that Hispanics have to learn from these happenings the basics of resource management. And if we happen to have that skill and knowhow, these need to be shared with others. Basic to effective activities are the issues of trust and integrity; fair play and honesty; knowing that we all try to play by the same rules of ethics and morality. These last items are not about money, rather they are about values which we all share, practice and benefit by their

application.

Many in the local community depend upon others to provide services, without knowing enough to perform effective basic monitoring and oversight activities essential to ensure that the correct and appropriate use of any and all funds is actually happening. That is what oversight monitoring is all about.

Available resources must be managed so that the greatest good for all is realized.

Today, our youth grow up without knowing that someone, usually their parents, pay for all the services and products they enjoy.

Our youth go through high school and college without knowing how to manage their own personal business affairs. Local advocates can explain to youth the concepts of fiscal planning, expense controls, audits, balance sheets, profit/loss statements, and cash flow requirements to meet contracted expenses. In addition, our youth must understand that the generation of profits is essential. No skill is required to ‘throw money away.’ Rather, skills and discipline are needed to stay within one’s budget. One can earn money with ideas, services, and production of products for which a market and demand exist. Knowledge and awareness are needed to identify those who are the greedy profiteers.

Informed advocates are needed who are willing to teach all of us, especially our youth, how to manage these matters. The main quest in life is that of having a purpose and meaning. Money plays a role in that it is the license to perform, produce and consume. To resist the lure of living beyond our means, trusted Chicano community advocates are essential.

su sombra, ignoran hoy en día quien es Cesar Chávez.

Hace pocos días el monumento a Martin Luther King en Washington se llenó de flores. Un grupo de residentes de la capital se reunió allí atendiendo la invitación del Departamento de Vivienda y Servicios Humanos – HUD – para conmemorar al líder que 44 años después de su muerte sigue siendo determinante en la vida de miles de personas.

Ocurre lo mismo con Martin Luther King.

Bien dicen los que saben que los pueblos que ignoran su historia están condenados a repetirla.

Al monumento, que hoy se alza en el mismo parque que alberga los monumentos a otros grandes como Thomas Jefferson o Abraham Lincoln acudieron vecinos de la capital, activistas y líderes comunitarios, pero, y eso me sorprendió, no había una sola alma hispana.

Cuando el reverendo Martín Luther King, jr., fue asesinado el 4 de abril de 1968, el presidente Lyndon Johnson uso la tragedia nacional para presionar al congreso y lograr la aprobación de la Ley de Vivienda Justa, que se convirtió en ley el 11 de abril del mismo año, explicó Trasviña.

Y es esa la razón por la que escribo esta columna. Es cierto que hacemos parte de esta sociedad, es cierto que la enriquecemos con nuestra fuerza laboral y nuestra cultura y es cierto también que llevamos años luchando por la aprobación de una reforma migratoria integral que no deje por fuera a ninguno de los nuestros, para poder vivir a plenitud las ventajas de pertenecer al país que escogimos para vivir.

Pero también es cierto, que muchas veces nos distraemos. Si queremos ser parte real de esta sociedad y reclamar los derechos que ello conlleva, tenemos el deber moral de conocer este país, de indagar sobre su historia y de tratar de entenderla.

No es solo cuestión de acudir a las marchas y levantar banderas. Es cuestión de educarnos un poco y de educar a nuestras familias.

Después de los años de lucha por los derechos de los trabajadores del campo que lideró uno de los líderes hispanos más grandes que ha tenido este país, muchos de los que aun se cobijan bajo

Durante el homenaje, el secretario adjunto de vivienda e igualdad del HUD, John Trasviña hizo un recuento para explicar porque las acciones del activista siguen afectando vidas.

De no ser por esta ley, hoy en día no existirían recursos de vivienda para miles de inmigrantes hispanos que hoy son víctimas de discriminación en todo el país.

Trasviña

recordó

que

Luther King luchó por los derechos civiles de las familias y en contra de la guerra y que fue parte de la lucha de Cesar Chávez por los derechos de los trabajadores del campo.

“Pero la acción principal interrumpida y que faltaba por terminar en el momento de su muerte fue la lucha por acabar con la discriminación de vivienda en Estados Unidos”, anotó Trasviña.

Ese, dijo era el principio básico, aún inalcanzado, que todos en este país tengan derecho a vivir donde quieran.

Cada año, HUD y sus agencias del Programa de Asistencia de Vivienda Justa (FHAP) reciben cerca de 10,000 denuncias de algún tipo de discriminación en la vivienda. La discriminación por raza, que por supuesto afecta a miles de hispanos, es una constante.

Usted puede pelear por sus derechos. Si quiere saber más o cree que ha sido víctima de discriminación llame al HUD al (800) 669-9777.

Officials Ask for Marriage Equality in San Jose Over 30 community groups and leaders, and over 1,100 individuals, asked Mayor Chuck Reed to sign a statement in support of same-sex marriage Osvaldo Castillo El Observador

President Barack Obama recently changed his opinion on same-sex marriage and is now in favorite of it, saying his position has ‘evolved’ over the years.

Several community leaders through out the country have since followed in the President’s footsteps and have announced their support for same-sex marriage.

However, San Jose Mayor Chuck Reed is yet to announce his support and on Wednesday, May 30, Gay and Lesbian activists, along with some San Jose City Council members, held a press conference in front of City Hall asking support same-sex marriage.

“Same-sex marriage is the essential civil rights issue we are facing today,” said Wiggsy Sivertsen, cofounder of BAYMEC, a four county LGBT political action group. “Gay couples deserve to have the same rights allowed by marriage as heterosexual couples have.”

A resolution, presented

by Councilmember Ash Karla and co-signed by Council members Kansen Chu and Don Rocha, affirms the City Council’s support and calls upon San José Mayor Chuck Reed to do the same by signing a statement that has already been signed by over 215 US mayors. San José is the only big city – besides Dallas – whose mayor hasn’t signed.

Mayor Reed canceled his meeting on the issue with LGBT advocates and would not state his position.

“This issue is important to me because we can not have second class citizens in

Former Vice-Mayor Judy Chirco would like to see her son have the same rights like others, regardless of sexual prefernece. our city,” Karla said. “I take it personally when I know members of my community do not have the same rights as others. Obama has come out in support of marriage equality, and now it’s time for our elected official support equality as well.”

Mayor Reed has often voted not to support the LGBT freedom to marry.

Over 30 community groups and leaders, and over 1,100 individuals, asked the Mayor to sign a statement in support of same-sex marriage.

Vice Mayor Madison Nguyen originally co-sponsored the proposed resolution and then removed her

signature, saying that she did not support the portion of the resolution calling on Mayor Reed to support the LGBT freedom to marry.

Former Vice-Mayor Judy Chirco was also at the press conference to show her support for same-sex marriage and to ask Mayor Reed to do the same.

“I have a son who is gay, and if he decides to get married, he will not have the same rights as heterosexual couples,” Chirco said. “This is not a religious issue, this is an issue about rights.

It’s time for the council to support this issue because the community does.”

San Jose Unified Unveils New Strategic Plan – OPPORTUNITY21 Focuses on “Closing the Opportunity Gap” & “Providing 21st Century Skills” for All Students San Jose, CA.

On Wednesday, May 17th, the San Jose Unified Board of Education unanimously approved a new, five-year Strategic Plan, called OPPORTUNITY21.

The vote puts a bookend on nearly nine months of development and marks the beginning of a new chapter for San Jose Unified, focused on eliminating “the opportunity gap” and providing the finest 21st century edu-

cation for every one of our 32,500 students.

This planning process was unique in that it engaged nearly 3,500 people by asking for their ideas about the future direction of the school system. These stakeholders included staff, parents, business leaders, civic leaders, and both current and former students.

The final plan reflects the direction and wishes of our school community. The re-

lease of OPPORTUNITY21 sets in motion a commitment from all our stakeholders to move forward on a plan that builds on prior success, but is willing to meet head on the challenges in front of us.

Superintendent of Schools Dr. Vincent Matthews stated, “It is our responsibility as a community to provide an excellent 21st education for all students – an education that sees no

boundaries between students and that does not predetermine what type of education a child will receive. With OPPORTUNITY21, all stakeholders will clearly see that it is our moral imperative to eliminate the opportunity gap and provide the skills necessary for our students to be successful as they graduate and move on to college or careers. We need to narrow our focus, take responsibility and commit to ensuring equity in opportunity and outcomes for all students.”

The five-year plan focuses on five key objectives and 15 strategies over the next five years. It has two overarching priorities: 1. Closing the persistent “opportunity gap,” which gives Latino and low-income students access to higher quality instruction and challenging classes, and helps explain the ongoing achievement gap with white students and higher-income

students.

Underserved students will see a difference in their educational experience by having: • Consistently high standards and consistent instruction, no matter which school they attend.

• Equitable opportunities to succeed: access to high-level courses, exposure to high quality instruction, and a diverse curriculum for all students, including those who traditionally have been left behind • Systematic and reliable access to services that support their social, emotional and physical health, offered by multiple community partners such as Gardner Health Center and Eastfield Ming Quong. 2.

Ensuring all students have 21st century skills. Knowing how to read and do math are critical skills. But parents, employers and educators also know that students

need a lot more to succeed in college, at work, and in an increasingly diverse and competitive world, skills such as: critical thinking and problem solving; creative thinking; and collaboration.

The new Plan has supporting strategies addressing the following: • Required hands-on postsecondary exposure with major employers such as Lockheed Martin, City of San Jose, Adobe, and many others• Career awareness programs for younger students • Expanded opportunities for community service with partners such as United Way of Silicon Valley, Children’s Discovery Museum, Sacred Heart Community Center, and many others.

This plan will be phased in gradually over the next five years.

El senado pide que las escuelas den instrucciones para prevenir abuso sexual SACRAMENTO

Ayer, con el voto 25-12, el Senado aprobó la medida SCR 73 que le pide a todos los distritos escolares que den información, apropiada para todas las edades, a los estudiantes sobre el abuso sexual. También, esta medida pide que los distritos escolares ofrezcan recursos en como navegar estas situaciones tan peligrosas.

“El abuso sexual de nuestros niños suceden en los hogares y a veces no podemos asegurarnos que todo los padres educan y ayudan nuestros niños en este crimen,” dijo el Senador Leland Yee (D-San Francisco/ San Mateo), escritor de la

resolución. “Es imperativo que nuestra juventud sea informada de las conductas inapropiadas para que se protejan o puedan recibir ayuda si son víctimas.”

Nacionalmente, se reporta que el abuso sexual de los niños ocurre aproximadamente 80.000 veces al año.

Pero el número de casos no reportados es mayor porque los niños, usualmente, tienen miedo reportar el hecho.

Según, la famosa artista musical, Jenni Rivera revelo que su hija y su hermana menor, fueron víctimas del abuso sexual de su ex-marido, José Trinidad Marin.

En el 2007 el hombre

fue condenado 31 años en la prisión federal por 8 cargos de abuso sexual.

“Los niños quien conocen y aprecian el abusador, con frecuencia sienten lealtad o temen ser abusados de nuevo o se sienten culpables que pueden destruir su familia,” dijo Yee, un psicólogo de niños. Los efectos del abuso sexual tienen un impacto mayor en la vida de niño y es por eso que tenemos que hacer todo lo posible para poner un alto a esto y poder ofrecer tratamiento necesario. Las escuelas harán gran impacto en las vidas de los niños, poniendo en práctica la medida SCR 73.

Health Happens in the Workplace: Learn from Healthy Silicon Valley Businesses Julian Canete President & CEO of the California Hispanic Chamber of Commerce

We know that California is home to the ideas and initiatives that other states and nations emulate. California’s innovation – from the Central Valley to the energetic coastline – thrives on harnessing entrepreneurial spirit and inspiring profitable business trends that improve lives and shift perspectives. Businesses in the Silicon Valley – no stranger to this notion – have been embarking on new programs that are improving the quality of health and increase their bottom line

to grow their companies.

Workplace wellness programs are sweeping the region and for good reason. Healthy employees are generally happier and more productive at work; two important factors that will determine a company’s success.

A 2010 Harvard Business Review article reported that one study found companies with wellness programs saved as much as $6 in health care for every $1 invested. That same dollar spent on wellness programs also reduced workers’ compensation claims from $5 to $3.

Health experts would

also agree that workplace wellness programs will make us healthier.

Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said in an April 2012 speech that “we have a clear and powerful national interest in promoting our country’s health. And we know from decades of research that the most effective way to do that is prevention. It’s not only easier to keep people healthy than treat them once they get sick.

It’s usually less costly too.”

Silicon Valley businesses are leading the way by implementing best practices that boost wellness.

Aunque el mercado laboral en EE. UU. sigue mostrando poco dinamismo, los hispanos que buscan trabajo están en el radar de los empleadores. Uno de cada cinco (20 por ciento) de los 2000 empleadores encuestados por CareerBuilder dijeron que planean emplear latinos en el 2012. El 44 por ciento planea contratar trabajadores bilingües.

EmpleosCB.com, el sitio web de CareerBuilder para trabajadores hispanos, recomienda lo siguiente para mejorar su chance de obtener su próximo empleo: Use en su currículum vítae la fraseología que aparece en el aviso. Hoy en día, la mayoría de las compañías usan un software rastreador para identificar y clasificar a centenares de currículums que reciben para sus posicio-

Currículums personalizados y hechos a medida. No envíe el mismo currículum para todos los puestos. El 79 por ciento de los gerentes de recursos humanos dijeron que prestan más atención a los currículums personalizados, o sea los que están hechos a la medida del puesto.

Tejer una red más amplia. Envíe de tres a cinco currículums hechos a la medida de diversas industrias y puestos para alcanzar a un amplio número de empleadores.

No se olvide de la carta de presentación. Un tercio de los gerentes de recursos

Making smart food choices and offering other forms of preventive care will keep workers healthy.

Business owners understand that these practices will keep employees at work and could help reduce time spent in their doctor’s office.

A report released by Pacific Community Ventures showed that minority business owners are more likely to offer health insurance for this very reason – to keep their workforce healthy and productive.

To recognize and promote this shift towards prevention, the Silicon Valley Leadership Group (SVLG)

is hosting a workplace wellness conference on the economic and health benefits of the investment in preventative care for employees and their families. Called “Health Happens in the Workplace,” the conference will analyze the best practices of wellness benefits and programs from industry leaders at Microsoft, Brocade, Kaiser Permanente and Johnson & Johnson.

The conference being held at Microsoft Silicon Valley on Wednesday, June 6, will arm employers and human resource professionals with the tools to implement similar efforts. Such tools will include ideas on

how to motivate employees to get active and social marketing and social media techniques to improve participation in wellness and prevention efforts.

I urge all businesses – large and small – to join the Silicon Valley Leadership Group, Silicon Valley Hispanic Chamber Of Commerce, and many other companies, business organizations and health groups to learn how they can make health happen.

Vacune los niños a tiempo para protegerlos contra enfermedades NewsUSA

Los padres están de acuerdo que los horarios de alimentación y de dormir son importantes para ayudar a mantener sanos a sus hijos. Lo mismo es cierto en el caso de las vacunas infantiles. Vacunar a los niños a tiempo es la mejor manera de protegerlos contra 14 enfermedades graves y potencialmente mortales antes de su segundo cumpleaños.

“El calendario de vacunación recomendado está diseñado para ofrecer protección en la etapa temprana de la vida”, dijo la Dra. Anne Schuchat, Directora del Centro Nacional de Inmunización y Enfermedades Respiratorias de los Centros para el Control y la Prevención de Enfermedades (CDC, por sus siglas en inglés), “cuando los bebés son vulnerables y antes que sea probable que queden expuestos a las enfermedades”.

Los expertos en salud pública y los médicos basan sus recomendaciones con respecto a las vacunas en muchos factores.

Estudian de manera muy cuidadosa información sobre las enfermedades y las vacunas para decidir qué vacunas se les debe poner a los niños y cuándo se deben poner para ofrecerles la mejor protección posible.

Aunque la cantidad de vacunas que necesita un niño durante sus primeros años de vida podría parecer

Cuando padres eligen no vacunar a sus hijos, los dejan sin protección contra enfermedades. mucha, los médicos tienen amplios conocimientos sobre el sistema inmunológico humano y saben que el sistema inmunológico de un bebé sano puede recibir todas las vacunas que se recomiendan. La Dra. Schuchat advierte a los padres que eviten dilatar vacunar a sus hijos: “No existe ningún beneficio conocido del dilatar la vacunación. De hecho, hacerlo pone a bebés en riesgo de contraer enfermedades porque los deja vulnerables para contraer enfermedades graves durante el tiempo que no están protegidos por las vacunas”.

Cuando los padres eligen no vacunar a sus hijos o seguir un calendario de inmunización retrasado o alternativo, dejan a sus hijos sin protección contra

enfermedades que todavía circulan en este país, tales como el sarampión y la tos ferina. El año 2010, se notificaron más de 27,000 casos de tos ferina, que causaron 27 fallecimientos, 25 de los cuales fueron infantes. En 2011, 222 personas contrajeron sarampión en los Estados Unidos, cifra que es mayor que la de cualquier año desde 1996. Mantenerse al día con el calendario de vacunación asegura que para cuando los niños cumplan dos años, tengan la mejor protección contra enfermedades serias.

Si tiene preguntas sobre el calendario de vacunación infantil, hable con el médico o enfermero de su hijo.

Neighborhood Housing Services Silicon Valley Convenes San Jose, CA

Ne ig hb orho o d Housing Services Silicon Valley Convenes San Jose, CA —Neighborhood Housing Services Silicon Valley (NHSSV), part of Santa Clara County’s Affordable Housing Week’s events, convened a Foreclosure Intervention Panel last week at San Jose City Hall. The Panelists included representatives from BofA, Chase, Wells Fargo, CalHFA, San Jose Housing Department staff, PACT, and the Law Foundation of Silicon Valley. Moderator, Matt Huerta, Executive Director of NHSSV stated: “The panel discussion achieved the goal of establishing an ongoing dialogue with lenders and our local team of advocates and practitioners to share the best information available and continuously identify areas for collaboration that will achieve better results for our homeowners and keep our local economy on the path toward recovery.”

Here are some excerpts and summaries from the panelist discussion; a full summary is available at www.nhssv.org.

Jacky Morales-Ferrand, City of San Jose Assistant Housing Director: “The City has partnered with the Housing Trust and NHSSV to obtain $25 Million in National Stabilization Program funds to purchase and rehabilitate foreclosed homes and sell them to low and moderate-income families. Our larger effort is the foreclosure help center. An East San Jose satellite office will open in Summer 2012.”

Diane Richardson, Director of Policy Development for CalHFA outlined Programs for qualifying households:

1. Unemployment Assistance Program –“Pays mortgage payment up to $3,000 for up to 9 months.

Homeowner must be collecting unemployment from Employment Development Department (EDD). Funds go to the servicer to pay the mortgage payment.”

2. Mortgage Reinstatement Program – “Pays up to $25,000 to reinstate your mortgage by a pure reinstatement or coupled with a modification if your servicer chooses to modify your loan at that time.”

3. Principal Reduction Program – “Pays up to $50,000 to lower your principal and, in June, increases the payment to $100,000.

You have to document your hardship and show that you can make a sustainable payment going forward. The servicer must match that assistance dollar for dollar, but in June this requirement will be eliminated.

The servicer will then be asked to modify the loan.”

4. Transition Assistance Program – “Families that are going to do a Short Sale or a Deed in Lieu transaction, qualify for up to $5,000 to get reestablished in another living situation.”

Diana Castillo, Senior Attorney at the Law Foundation of Silicon Valley, provided an overview of the foreclosure intervention response: “We have successfully represented homeowners who were trapped in predatory loans, wrongly denied loan modifications.

We also continue to see homeowners who have been defrauded by private loan modification “specialists”.

Gina Gates, NHSSV Board member and PACT Leader: “The biggest issue around Most Holy Trinity in East San Jose is foreclosure.

We successfully lobbied Mayor Reed to assign two more code enforcement officers to deal with foreclosed and abandoned properties.”

Only a fraction of borrowers take advantage of lenders programs.

Frank Howard, Senior V.P. of Wells Fargo Bank said: “WFB goes into the communities, and does large scale home preservation workshops where they have underwriters on site.

However, we’re only having an 8-10% turnout.”

Sam Hussain, Senior V.P. of Bank of America said: “We’ve sent out over 200,000 letters to BofA customers, and our response rate is extremely low.

We’re telling them that we’re gonna give you principal forgiveness, please call us.”

Diana Castillo challenged the panelists “Lenders should go to East SJ and South Santa Clara County, serve homeowners in their neighborhoods, support HUD approved counseling services.

Lenders should consider foreign-language radio programs for outreach and contact the Law Foundation to learn about the foreclosure crisis in Santa Clara County.”

Frank Howard: “… Our numbers aren’t broken down

by San Jose neighborhoods.

If you have a location and someone we can work with, we will bring underwriters in for a Saturday event.”

Gina Gates: “Our folks Text. If you want them to know about your events, come to the neighborhoods, work with PACT, and go to churches. I commend NHSSV for bringing counseling services to Most Holy Trinity community resource center.”

Comunidad reacciona ante un posible aumento en la renta para inquilinos con Sección 8

La definición de Housing & Urban Development de viviendas asequibles es que no deberían costar más de un 30% de sus ingresos.t Cinthia Rodriguez El Observador

El 29 de mayo, alrededor de 50 inquilinos con Sección 8 y miembros de la comunidad se reunieron en la Autoridad de Vivienda del Condado de Santa Clara (HACSC) en San José. Hablaban con fuerza y claramente en contra del propuesto incremento en la renta escrita en la Autoridad de Vivienda recientemente adoptado Moving to Work Annual Plan, en el año fiscal 2013 (desde el 1 de julio de 2012 hasta el 30 de junio de 2013).

MTW es un programa federal establecido por el Congreso, que fomenta que ciertas autoridades de viviendas realicen propuestas e implementación de cambios generados localmente en la manera de administrar los programas de viviendas accesibles, siempre con la aprobación del Departamento de Vivienda y Desarrollo Urbano (Department of Housing and Urban Development, HUD).

“Lo que está en el plan es un poco más eficiente, ahorra un poco de dinero, y nos permite hacer lo que estamos haciendo un poco mejor”, dijo Bill Anderson,

presidente de la Autoridad de Vivienda del Condado de la Junta de Santa Clara de Comisionados. “La forma en que opera, según entiendo, se resuelve costándoles a ciertos individuos una renta más alta y a otras una renta más baja.”

HACSC’s 2013 Moving to Work Annual Plan afirma que un aspecto importante del próximo año fiscal será la implementación de un programa de reforma de la renta en que el inquilino también se incentivará a la autosuficiencia. En el plan, HACSC busca la aprobación de HUD para realizar dos propuestas. Establecer un programa de “Subsidio escalonado para vivienda” que reformará la forma en que se calcula la ayuda para viviendas en el programa de vales para la elección de una vivienda (Housing Choice Voucher). Eliminar la ‘Denegación por ingreso del trabajo’ (Earned Income Disallowance, EID) según lo previsto por las normas del Departamento de Vivienda y Desarrollo Urbano de Estados Unidos.

“Deberían de expandirla no quitarla porque tenemos muchas personas, miles y miles de personas que no tienen la Sección 8 y que es-

tán pagando 1,800-2,000 de renta por apartamentos que están infectados de cucarachas”, dijo Alicia Carvajal, paralegal para Legal Aid Society of Santa Clara County. “Las mamas tienen dos trabajos, porque muchas de ellas están bajo el salario mínimo y lo que se llevan para la casa no es mucho”.

“Tengo estos clientes que vienen a mí todos los días y vienen a llorar porque no saben lo que está en el aviso y no saben cómo responder”, dijo Shawn Yee, abogado, Asian Law Alliance.

“Mi temor es que cuando les llegue el aviso de aumento de renta que no van a saber cómo responder”.

Carvajal explico que hoy día hay miles de familias que viven en automóviles y trabajan pero no pueden pagar renta. Lo peor es cuando son desalojados por no pagar y eso le impide a la gente buscar otro lugar de vivienda. Otros de sus clientes son abusados por sus propietarios, alegando que tienen antecedentes penales para poder echarlos. En otros casos les aumentan la renta que no pueden pagar.

La mesa de comisiones de HACSC está de acuerdo con los manifestantes pero al mismo tiempo tienen que solucionar el problema de vivienda con el dinero que reciben del gobierno federal.

Hay menos dinero, dejándolos con opciones que no nos favorecerán. Hicieron la promesa de distribuir el dinero de una manera que sea justa y razonable.

Los manifestantes hablaron directamente con la mesa de comisiones, dando testimonios persónales. La mayoría describieron las dificultades en las que ya se encuentran, los constantes prestamos, vendiendo latas de aluminio y botellas, y quedando atrás en las cuentas a pagar del hogar. La mayoría eran personas de tercera edad o con discapacidad.

Otros hablaron acerca de los problemas de lenguaje.

Los inquilinos y los líderes de la comunidad se comprometieron a seguir presionando para que el HUD rechace el plan, sobre todo ahora que parece que hay confusión sobre exactamente cuántos de ellos recibirán aumentos de renta y la cantidad que será. Se comprometieron a continuar la lucha dentro y fuera de la Autoridad de Vivienda para garantizar que las rentas no se incrementen, los fondos no se corten, y los inquilinos no sean desalojados.

“Hemos olvidado que lo más importante de mantener una familia estable y una comunidad estable es tener un techo sobre las personas”, dijo Carvajal.

“Este es el valle del silicio,

uno de los valles más ricos y sin embargo tenemos gente que no tiene donde vivir “.

Dress for Success Juan Carlos Miranda Special to El Observador

Often times I get asked where do I get inspiration for style. I have to admit I don’t think I’m the best dressed guy out there but I make do with what I have, and I can be pretty creative at times. My inspiration comes from everything I see everywhere, even if it’s not the latest trend.

Whenever I go out for an interview, or simply to some important event I like to live by the phrase “dress to impress!” and it’s with this idea in mind that I try to inspire others.

One of my main inspirations comes from work, I work with some pretty stylish girls, and boys, and so I feel obligated to keep up with them. It’s always a highlight of my day to see what everyone is wearing at work; it’s like candy for my fashion crave. I do have to say that no other office is as stylish as ours however, and I’m pretty disappointed.

Nowadays office attire has become so casual and laid back that it looks like people work out of their garages. Whatever happened to having pride at work? Or dressing for the job you want? Seriously people, going to work looking like you just rolled out of bed is not acceptable, and it’s even less if your hair looks like Chimoltrufia’s.

So let’s take pride in the work we do and show it by dressing the part. You will not only look good but you’ll feel even better.

Now, what is appropriate attire to wear at the office?

It all depends on the line of work you do. For lawyers, executives, politicians, and other higher ranking positions a suit is a must, but be forewarned that choosing the right type of suit is also tricky. There are a number of rules to follow if you want to look good in a suit, but we’ll leave

Slacks are always a good addition to any work attire. They can be worn with almost anything. that topic for another time.

Let’s talk work attire for the rest of us. Suits are always the perfect attire when you mean business, but it’s not written anywhere that you have to wear one to look professional. Separates are always a good way to mix it up at work. Having a closet with a mix of jeans, dress shirts, and blazers will give you a wide range of choices so you don’t have to repeat the same outfit twice.

is to always dress up your jeans instead of dressing them down. Pair your favorite pair of jeans with a dress shirt and a blazer to complete the look; also make sure your jeans are not ripped or overly faded.

Some tips to always keep in mind when choosing your clothes is to wear the correct size. Be honest to yourself and wear pants that actually fit you, don’t wear pants that are too big or too small.

Slacks are always a good addition to any work attire.

They add seriousness and elegance to your outfit and you can wear them with almost everything. Pair those dark, solid slacks with a checkered shirt for a fun look, add a black leather jacket and you have a winning outfit.

Shed the extra fabric and you’ll look thinner, a fitted shirt will do just that.

Whoever said work clothes can’t be comfortable? Jeans have long been thought as the weekend, laidback choice to wear on your days off but they have slowly found their way into the work place. They are fun, comfortable, and add a twist to your work attire.

One thing to remember

Whatever you do just remember to have fun, mix up your clothes and take risks.

It’s all about trial and error. Just keep in mind that you’ll learn more from your mistakes, and once you do, everything will come as a breeze. Pretty soon you’ll be a stylish hunk instead of a style-less chump.

Wear the correct size jacket, a jacket that is too long will make you look shorter; one that is too short will make you look, well, just ridiculous.

Kristen Stewart (the Twilight saga, On the Road) plays the only person in the land fairer than the evil Queen Ravenna (Oscar winner Charlize Theron of Prometheus, Hancock) who is out to destroy her.

But what the wicked ruler never imagined was that the young woman who has escaped her clutches and now threatens her reign has been training in the art of war with a Huntsman named Eric (Chris Hemsworth of Thor, The Avengers) who was dispatched to capture her. Sam Claflin (Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides) accompanies the film’s cast of international superstars as William, the young duke long enchanted by Snow White’s defiance and innate purity.

Ansioso Tim Bradley por subir al ring contra Manny Pacquiao Notimex Hollywood, Ca.,

El Observador Your Community Resource.

El campeón mundial invicto Tim Bradley hizo un viaje especial por carretera a Hollywood desde su campo de entrenamiento en Indio, California, para promocionar su duelo contra Manny Pacquiao el próximo 9 de junio en Las Vegas, Nevada.

“Esto ha sido muy grato para mí, pues estoy muy contento de toda la atención que esta pelea me ha atraído y la oportunidad

de demostrar todo mi talento”, dijo Bradley, actual monarca de peso superligero de la Organización Mundial de Boxeo (OMB).

Bradley habló con la prensa en el Gimnasio Fortune de Hollywood, antes de trabajar con su entrenador Joel Díaz. También sinaloense Marvin Quintero forma parte del equipo de sparrings de Bradley, quien se encuentra muy satisfecho con el trabajo del mexicano.

“Ya me siento listo y estoy ansioso de subir al ring para enfrentar al reto mas importante de mi carrera profesional. Es-

toy seguro que será una gran pelea”, dijo Bradley.

Durante el entrenamiento traía un poster gigante y presentaron a la prensa credenciales para la segunda pelea contra Pacquiao supuestamente para el próximo 10 de noviembre.

“Ya firmé para la revancha de Pacquiao, todo lo que tengo que hacer es ganar esta primera pelea, pero como estoy tan seguro que la ganaré, ya quiero que le gente se prepare para la segunda en noviembre”, dijo un sonriente Bradley.

“A mí nunca nadie me ha regalado nada y tendré que

estar al cien por ciento para derrotar al mejor peleador del mundo y crean me que lo voy a estar. Esta victoria cambiara mi vida y la de mi familia”, dijo Bradley.

Manny Pacquiao (54-32, 38 nocauts) expondrá su campeonato de peso welter de la Organización Mundial de Boxeo ante Bradley (280, 12 kos), actual monarca superligero de la OMB, en el duelo estelar de una función que será televisada por PPE.

Cómo el teléfono inteligente puede ayudarle a cuidar su automóvil ARA

Si puede resistirse a la tentación de buscarlo mientras está tras el volante, su teléfono inteligente puede serle de gran valor para el cuidado de su vehículo. Un teléfono inteligente puede darle instrucciones para realizar procedimientos de mantenimiento mientras usted inspecciona el motor, así como ayudarle a buscar la pieza que necesita arreglo, y ponerle en contacto con un mecánico confiable más rápida y fácilmente que nunca antes.

Independientemente de que usted sea un mecánico aficionado, o disfrute simplemente el hecho de mantener un calendario accesible de mantenimiento, estas son algunas formas mediante las cuales su teléfono inteligente puede ayudarle a cuidar más su vehículo: * Videos de instrucción.

YouTube no es solamente un sitio incomparable para ver los videos cómicos más recientes, sino también una fuente idónea para encontrar videos que le servirán

de guía en procedimientos comunes de mantenimiento. “La posibilidad de descargar un video de instalación, a menudo de su automóvil en particular, en un teléfono inteligente y verlo mientras cambia las piezas, es conveniente para los mecánicos”, asegura Tom Taylor, ingeniero y vicepresidente de RockAuto.com. * Catálogos de piezas de recambio. Como conoce su utilidad para mecánicos profesionales y aficionados, RockAuto.com inauguró recientemente una versión de su catálogo integral de piezas de recambio para teléfonos inteligentes. “Sin dudas, una persona que está debajo de un vehículo mirando el cable oxidado del freno de mano no quiere dar una decena de viajes al ordenador en su escritorio. Por tanto, creamos una versión móvil de nuestro catálogo para los clientes que deseen buscar piezas nuevas mientras están mirando literalmente las piezas viejas de su automóvil”, añade Taylor. Al tener disponible un catálogo compatible con los teléfonos inteligentes, no

sólo se pueden ver las opciones de piezas de recambio, sino también pedirlas al momento mientras se continúa el trabajo de mecánica. * Agendas de mantenimiento. Si usted es uno de los numerosos dueños conscientes de automóviles, probablemente lleva consigo un registro de mantenimientos en la guantera donde detalla todo tipo de operaciones, desde procedimientos de mantenimiento a cambios de aceite, e incluso el consumo de gasolina por millaje cada vez que llena el tanque. La buena noticia es que existen numerosas “aplicaciones” para teléfonos móviles que pueden facilitarle aún más esa tarea.

Una buena aplicación de mantenimiento del vehículo organizará y presentará las notas que usted registra en forma lógica, e incluso le permite hacer anotaciones de múltiples vehículos.

Además, hay algunas que le envían recordatorios del próximo cambio de aceite u otros procedimientos rutinarios de mantenimiento. * Localizadores de ta-

lleres de reparación. Si se encuentra de repente en territorio desconocido, el teléfono inteligente puede ser de gran ayuda para encontrar un taller confiable.

Su aplicación de mapa le ayuda a localizar los más cercanos, y luego le lleva a la Red para leer reseñas en sitios compatibles con teléfonos inteligentes como CustomerLobby.com, don-

de se enterará de lo que han escrito otros clientes acerca de las reparaciones realizadas en esos talleres. * Información para compra de vehículos. Su teléfono inteligente también puede ayudarle en la búsqueda de un coche nuevo. Si ya está en el salón de exposición del concesionario, puede usar su teléfono para ver en Internet especificaciones

del vehículo y leer reseñas.

Numerosas revistas de automovilismo tienen sitios Web compatibles con teléfonos inteligentes, lo cual hace que todo sea mucho más fácil, e incluso puede obtener una respuesta rápida acerca del tipo de economía en consumo de combustible que puede esperar en fueleconomy.gov/m.
