Mar\u00eda todav\u00eda vive en la misma casa. Todav\u00eda cocina las comidas favoritas de sus hijos para la cena, aunque ahora tienen entre 20 y 30 a\u00f1os. Pero mucho ha cambiado. Gracias a COFI y LSNA, cientos de padres de Logan Square fueron capacitados para convertirse en l\u00edderes comunitarios capacitados, asumiendo y resolviendo problemas dif\u00edciles. Los padres ganaron la construcci\u00f3n de nuevos edificios escolares y ampliaciones para hacer frente al hacinamiento. Las escuelas operan centros comunitarios que sirven como centros para las familias y el vecindario.<\/p>\n<p>In the video below, Maria explains about how being a parent leader had a profound impact on her, her family, and community. She tells parents: \u201cDon\u2019t just sit there, don\u2019t sit down. You are the leader, you are the parent, and you know what you want for your child.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Ox3I2B1aitU?si=S0G28BgXElde759C\" title=\"reproductor de videos de youtube\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>And as a bonus, we bring you Maria\u2019s son Oswaldo\u2019s story!
