I would like all who can attend, to pls attend. I'll be interpreting, in-person, supporting this work. The movement to combat opioids/Fetanyl in our communities, continues! 🙏🔥💪🎯 @goffashley @BryantAtkins_ @pike_notes @Nellyh411 @kevsaucebro @ARLnowDOTcom @Matt4Arlington

I applaud loudly, all the brave teachers & groups continuing to push for transparency in our schools! 👏👏👏 Cover-up policy & culture must be removed in APS in order for real solutions & safety for our children, to occur #Notonemorelife 🔥🎯💪🙏!

[Elder, Julio Basurto #reformarlingtonva @ElderBasurto]

Glad to be part of yesterday's healing work by @CYFA_Arl joined by many partners @ArlingtonDHS @NaacpVa @VOICEVirginia. Served as interpreter & #juntosenjusticia leader continuing the battle against opioids in our communities. The circle kept growing. Looking fwd to next one🙏

La adicción a las drogas y al alcohol es una enfermedad no solo física, sino mental y psicológica, así como social. Las drogas son las enemigas del futuro y de la esperanza, y cuando luchamos contra ellas luchamos por el futuro.

[NELLY @Nellyh411]

Luchar contra estas adicciones es un trabajo continuo, del día a día. Por eso el lema en Alcohólicos Anónimos es “un día a la vez”: el esfuerzo que se hace hoy no es acumulativo, mañana habrá que hacer lo que toque.

Great to hear this and glad to always see a supportive Principal that cares about, not only established orgs, but also community parents & community themes that can operate at our schools. There should be more supportive schools like Kenmore 👏 @APSKenmore @janeth_janeth2b

The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway. Give the world the best you have and it may never be enough. Give your best anyway. For you see, in the end, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.

🚨Clarification (to those who take offense while I move to make change): If I wanted to, I would've tagged u & your school by name. I haven't out of respect. However, I will not sit back while our kids perish. Pull your pants up & come with me. This is bigger than that 🎯💪🙏🔥

[Elder, Julio Basurto #reformarlingtonva @ElderBasurto]

🚨 To the drug counselor running smear campaigns-WE KNOW👁This is NOT & never was about criticizing staff but instead, putting urgency behind overdoses & distribution in schools. We can, however, start investigating why kids are now addicted despite drug your programs!🎯🔥💪🙏

I love "arbotecture" which was inspired by landscape engineer Arthur Wiechula exploration of arboreal landscapes in architecture.

@AHCInc from low-income families throughout their school journey??? Are you kidding me!! Please stop portraying our Low-income families as LATINOS ONLY.

[NELLY @Nellyh411]

@AHCInc It's incredible that you care that our children have a good academic performance... but you forget to take care of their Housing?......Nobody asked me for permission to publish the photo of my son and the children of my community.🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤔🧐

[NELLY @Nellyh411]

@AHCInc @AHCInc This photo was taken before the pandemic began! This program should be for all the children who live here and not just for a specific school... this is not a free program, families have to pay and we also have to volunteer.

[Janeth @janeth_janeth2b]

Something to think about it…after all these years, the vicious cycle continues…

/7 We did a private protest. Wore BLACK for our ppl have been kept in the DARK on this subject & our ppl r forced to face silent discrimination & live in the SHADOWS in Arlington for lack of opps. We didn't stand nor clap. We wait for our partners & county ...for now ⏳

[Elder, Julio Basurto #reformarlingtonva @ElderBasurto]

/6 Latino ppl & young ppl! If U see this - we're done with this narrative! We WILL EMPOWER our OWN PPL & create a NEW generation of LATINOS, independent in thought, power & abilities! We are a STRONG PPL. If you're w/ me & interested in the REAL, DM me! May God MOVE💪🔥🙏🎯

[Elder, Julio Basurto #reformarlingtonva @ElderBasurto]

/5 We came to support partners & thought we'd have time 2 represent our ppl. That wasn't exactly so. I want you to count, how many Latino's are present beside us? Is the concern for our ppl clearer & will our concerns be validated now? I lay it to u plainly for all to see🎯🙏

[Elder, Julio Basurto #reformarlingtonva @ElderBasurto]

/4 Children of color will NO LONGER be used by others to emotionally appeal to the masses or move agendas... while the very ppl displayed have NOT been included in the conversations! 🎯

[Elder, Julio Basurto #reformarlingtonva @ElderBasurto]

/3 Our ppl will NO LONGER BE DISPLAYED or PORTRAYED as weak, unintelligent beings by others - ESPECIALLY for causes LATINOS haven't even been taken into account in! We are still waiting for our 2nd half of 2 Missing Middle meetings that crash & burned🔥🧯 1 county 1 private!
