Greetings Friends-
We are excited to share that STLParaTi, a Latino initiative to connect our community more deeply to resources and information that can help them WORK, LIVE and PLAY more fully in St. Louis, is officially live!
The program, organized with assistance from many Latino leaders, consists of a website, Facebook and Instagram channels (@stl.parati), a flyer and a monthly 3-minute segment on (Spanish language television network) Telemundo’s Acceso Total (which debuted this week), that will feature regional job opportunities for work-authorized individuals and entrepreneur/small business support, a calendar of events, information about scholarships, and more. Over the next several months, we will be creating awareness about this resource by going into the community–to the people who can benefit from this information—and will work with the International Institute’s Latino Outreach Program and St. Louis City’s Office of New Americans to ensure that their clients have access to the information.
You can help spread the word by:
- sharing the website/link on your website
- following @stl.parati on FB and IG , engaging with content and tagging people who can benefit from the information
- talking about it with Latino friends, family, colleagues, clients, and customers
This initiative has been developed BY Latinos, WITH Latinos and FOR Latinos. It is both a resource and a movement to instill pride, strengthen and grow our community with an eye toward retaining Latinos in the region. Our long-term goal is that the more they feel welcomed, seen and heard, the more likely they will stay and tell their friends and family to give St. Louis a chance. We appreciate everyone’s support in helping achieve this important objective for our region!
Congratulations to our Assistant Director, Suzanne Sierra, for all the hard work! Please reach out to her if you have any questions.
Betsy, Suzanne & Annie
