Editor´s letter

Dear community,

As we welcome September, we enter a month of change and reflection. Here in Arizona, the monsoon rains give way to cooler mornings, children are back in school, and our communities prepare to celebrate the rich traditions of Hispanic Heritage Month.

This is a time to honor our roots and highlight the stories that bind us together—whether they began here in Arizona, across the border in Mexico, or in the many Latin American countries our families call home. Our bilingual voice is not just about translation; it is about celebrating two cultures, two languages, and one united community.
